A study was made of the behavior of the polycondensed macromolecules under the action of ionizing radiation (gamma rays of Co/sup 60/) and in the presence of various monomers. The polycondensed macromolecules studied were: polyethyleneterphthalate, the polyamides, the unsaturated polyesters, and cellulose acetate. As a monomer, use was made of acrylonitrile, styrene, methyl methacrylate, ethylene, etc. In order to facilitate the work, some monomers were tagged with C/sup 14/. A study was made of the rate of formation of the added copolymer, and an attempt was made at determining its position on the macromolecule. (auth)
