Pulse Radiolysis Studies II. Transient Spectra and Rate Processes in Irradiated Ethanol and Aqueous Ethanol Solution

Authors: I. A. Taub, L. M. Dorfman The radiation chemistry of deaerated aqueous ethanol and deaerated liquid ethanol has been studied by the pulse radiolysis technique. The same transient absorption spectrum, showing a broad weak absorption at about 290 mU and stronger narrow peaks at 266, 257 and 247 mU, has been observed in both systems. It is concluded that…
