Abstract Rates of radiation chemical crosslinking and scission of fluorine containing elastomers based on copolymers of vinylidene fluoride with trifluorochloroethylene (Copolymer 1), with hexafluoropropylene (Copolymer 2), and with a perfluoroalkyl vinyl ether (Copolymer 3) and also the behavior of their radiation vulcanizates in the stressed state at high temperatures are determined both by the type of polymer and by the irradiation conditions. Crosslinking rates of Copolymers 2 and 3 are higher than those of Copolymer 1; oxygen of the air inhibits crosslinking by γ-radiation; by irradiation in the presence of oxygen of the air, the sol fraction is 8–10 times higher than in its absence, Copolymer 3 vulcanizates obtained by irradiation in the absence of air appear to be optimal.

The effect of γ-radiation on N-vinylpyrrolidin-2-one and its homopolymer, poly(N-vinylpyrrolidin-2-one), has been investigated. With N-vinylpyrrolidin-2-one, polymerization occurs by a radical mechanism and the presence of water has been shown to have a promoting effect on the reaction, giving both increased polymerization rates and molecular weights. This has been primarily attributed to an enhancement of N- vinylpyrrolidin-2-one reactivity through hydrogen bonding. In contrast, irradiation of N-vinylpyrrolidin-2-one in the presence of organic solvents leads to lower polymerization rates and lower molecular weights than with the undiluted monomer. ��� Poly(N-vinylpyrrolidin-2-one) primarily crosslinks on being irradiated. Gel fractions have been determined as a function of radiation dose and the results shown to be consistent with the theoretical data derived by Inokuti for a polymer with an initial molecular weight distribution of the Schulz-Zimm type. This leads to values for the radiation chemical yields of crosslinks and main chain scissions, G(X) and G(S), of 0.13�0.03 and 0.02�0.01, respectively, at 0°C.

Abstract The pretreatment of the phosphoric acid is a stage of utmost importance leading to an optimal recovery of the uranium present in this acid. To this end, the degradation of the organic matter which obstructs considerably this recovery was tested by γ irradiation. This study lies within the scope of the radiation/matter interaction; concerning the use of the γ irradiator as proceed of phosphoric acid purification by the degradation of di butyl phthalate (DBP). Studies of the interaction of γ radiation with phosphoric acid solutions polluted by an organic matter concern the study of the influence of some parameters such as: dose rate (0.5–35 kGy), initial concentration (50–500 mg/L) of the pollutant, pH and % in P2O5 on the degradation of organic matter by γ irradiation. The reactions followed pseudo first order kinetics for different initial concentrations. The results made it possible to say that the degradation of di butyl phthalate by γ irradiation is dependent on the amount of the concentration of DBP and pH. The G-values decreased with absorbed doses, and increased with higher initial concentrations.Purification of phosphoric acid by γ radiation does not degrade the quality of this acid.

Abstract A novel high-dose dosimeter based on γ radiation reduction of copper ions and formation of copper metal inside polymer matrix were investigated. γ radiation induced synthesis of copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) in poly vinyl alcohol films were studied by UV-Visible Spectrophotometer, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). The optical absorption spectra showed that the Cu/PVA nanocomposite films have surface plasmon resonance (SPR) of copper nanoparticles which depending on irradiation doses. Upon γ irradiation these films turns its color from faint blue to deep reddish brown depending on metal ion concentration. The XRD pattern and FTIR spectrum confirm the formation of the CuNPs. The response of Cu/PVA nanocomposite dosimeters depends on both the irradiation doses and concentration of copper precursor. The dose range for these films was from 50 to 650 kGy, revealing its important applications for high dose dosimetry. Cu/PVA nanocomposites films exhibit good post-irradiation stability in dark and light.

Trimethylthiophosphite and red phosphorus are formed when solutions of white phosphorus in dimethyldisulfide are exposed to γ-radiation. The red phosphorus has a high content of CH3S groups. It is very reactive and can be converted into trimethylthiophosphite upon further irradiation in dimethyldisulfide suspension. Both the formation of red phosphorus from white phosphorus and the formation of trimethylthiophosphite from red phosphorus are chain processes. The radiation chemical yields are of the order of several 100 molecules/100 eV at room temperature.
