Scientific paper

Twenty-three carbon stars with IRAS LRS 2n, 3n, and 6n are presented, of which seven samples have been identified to have 10 microns silicate features. It is determined that on the IRAS color-color diagram most of the samples are located in the M star region or in the overlapping region of S-type stars and carbon stars. Thus the circumstellar shells of the stars are either oxygen rich or are undergoing the stage of transition from the oxygen rich to the carbon rich.
