Abstract

The radiolysis of vacuum oils was studied. The radiation-chemical yields of hydrogen varied over the range 1.6–3.2 depending on oil brand. A number of liquid radiolysis products were identified. It was found that, in the presence of oxygen, ketones were the main products of the radiation-induced oxidation of oils.
