Contribution of electronically excited states to the radiation chemistry of organic systems. Informal technical progress report, December 1, 1981-January 31, 1983

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6497446
Summaries are presented for the research projects in progress and for the following three completed projects: (1) comparision of the quenching of the fluorescence of saturated hydrocarbons excited below and above the ionization threshold; (2) dependence on scavenger concentration of the efficiency of quenching genunate-ion recombination fluorescence of saturated hydrocarbon liquids; (3) positive charge transfer from saturated non-polar liquids to N,N,N'-tetramethyl-p-phenylenediamine. In addition to these projects the following investigations have been completed and published during the past two years: effect of perfluorocarbons on ultraviolet absorption and fluorescence characteristics of some saturated hydrocarbon liquids; note on the G value for the production of the lowest excited singlet state of cyclohexane; effect of electron scavengers to reduce the ionization current of photoexcited N,N,N',N'-tetramethyl-p-phenylediamine in non-polar organic fluids; polystyren fluorescence-effects of molecular weight in various solvents.
