High spatial resolution spectral observations of the planetary nebula NGC 7027 in the 10-micron region are reported. These show that the unidentified infrared features at 8.65 and 11.25 microns originate from a more extensive region than the shell of ionized gas; the data are consistent with these features arising entirely from the contiguous neutral region. This situation places further constraints upon a fluorescent excitation mechanism (Allamandola, Greenberg and Norman, 1979) and it is argued that the features are due to thermal emission from surface bonds on graphite grains in an H I region (Barlow, 1982, in preparation; Dwek et al., 1980).
