RADIATION CHEMISTRY OF PENTANE ISOMERS

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4818654
Three isomeric pentane gases were exposed to Co/sup 60/ gamma rays, and the hundred electron volt yields of the lower molecular weight products were determined. The isomers studied were normal, iso-, and neopentane. The products formed from each isomer were: hydrogen, methane, acetyIene, ethane, propene, propane, butenes, and butanes. Some of the radioIysis products are explained on the basis of free radical reactions and mechanisms. (auth)
