Abstract

The radiolysis of aqueous benzene solutions was carried out at 35 °C, 45 °C, 55 °C, and 65 °C. The results, obtained by coupling HPLC and GC separations, showed that the yields of all the radiolysis products increased with temperature. However, the comparison of the results must be limited to those compounds that are formed exclusively in aqueous solutions. It was found that the increase of the relative concentrations of the products with the temperature followed the order: nitrobenzene>phenol>o-nitrophenol >p-nitrophenol.
