Notes:
The self-radiolysis of mixtures of CO and tritium (3H2) has been studied at pressures of 0.25 to 1.0 atmospheres, temperatures of -198° to +100°C, and in the presence of added H2O or CO2. The products of decomposition are CO2, 3H2O, C3H4, C23H4, and a white polymer believed to be polyformaldehyde. Initial rates and G values were measured and compared with rates of ion pair formation. The rates of formation of both CO2 and C3H4 are independent of temperature and proportional to the energy absorbed in the 3H2.
