Abstract
The study includes the effect of absorbed dose on the absorption spectra of thoron solutions at different pHs and different concentrations. The effect of absorbed dose on the linear response limit and the decolouration yield (G-value) were determined. These results were used in determining the dosimetric characteristics of the dye solutions.Some of the investigations were undertaken in presence of varying concentrations of ethyl alcohol. The results helped in recommending a decolouration mechanism, and in calculating the specific bimolecular rate constant for reaction of the dye with OH radicals.
