A wide range of solid solutions of acrylamide and propionamide were irradiated to various doses and the gaseous decomposition products measured. G values for H₂, CO and CH₄ were determined at several temperatures. The results indicate that either energy transfer reactions or hydrogen atom scavenging are important in determining relative yields. The G value for CO as a function of composition is unusual and may be influenced by lattice structure. Finally, the H₂ yield has been found to be primarily the result of a bimolecular reaction.
