Radiolysis of hydrocarbons, 20th communication: n-alkanes in liquid state from heptane to dodecane

Abstract Effects of dose and temperature on the yields of the majority of the radiolysis products of the n ‐heptane, n ‐octane, n ‐nonane, n ‐decane and n ‐dodecane have been determined. The G‐values of the products, excepting dimers are approximately the same for all the above n ‐alcanes. The temperature dependence, expressed as an apparent activation energy is shown to be equal for all n ‐alcanes.
