Infrared study of the effect of irradiation on biopolymers in presence of co-solvents
Description
The infrared spectra of gamma irradiated cotton cellulose, wool and soybean proteins were recorded. The irradiation was carried out in an atmosphere of air and in the presence of toluene, methanol, mixtures of the two solvents, chloroform and carbon tetrachloride. Careful examination of these spectra revealed that while irradiation in the presence of one solvent assists the formation of carbonyl groups in the structure of thee biopolymers, the irradiation in the presence of mixtures of toluene and methanol reduces the oxidation effects of gamma irradiation. The irradiation of wool and soybean proteins results also in the formation of sulfoxide groups as indicated bu the appearance of the 1040 cm-1 band.4 fig
