Abstract

Yields of hydrogen, methane, carbon monoxide, formaldehyde and ethylene glycol by gamma-radiolysis of methanol have been determined at room temperature and compared with values reported in the literature. The G-values obtained by the present studies are as follows: $G(H_2)=4.98,\;G(CH_4)=0.28,\;G(CO)=0.09,\;G(HCHO)=2.14\;and\;G(C_2H_6O_2)=3.07.$ The effects of water, methyl borate and alkali halides added to methanol prior to radiolysis have also been investigated. It is observed that alkali iodides and bromides affect the G-values, particularly, of hydrogen, formaldehyde and/or ethylene glycol, whereas alkali chlorides and fluorides have less pronounced effects.
