CHANGE OF THE DEGREE OF POLYMERIZATION INDUCED BY NEUTRON IRRADIATION IN VARIOUS CONDENSED PHOSPHATES

Journal Article · · J. Inorg. & Nuclear Chem.
Powdered crystals of several kinds of chain and ring phosphates were irradiated at thermal neutron flux 5 x l0/sup 11/ neutrons cm/sup -2/ sec/sup -1/ for 6 hr. The irradiated samples were analyzed using the combined techniques of refined paper chromatographic separation and radiochemical analysis. It was established that both degraded and polymerized products were always formed at tracer concentrations, though not detectable by ordinary chemical analysis. The degree of polymerization undoubtedly changed through hot atom reactions. The behavior of various species of phosphates and irradiated products was discussed. (auth)
