Abstract

The kinetics of gamma‐radiation induced free radicals reactions in carbon tetrachloride solutions of cyclohexane, cyclooctane and cyclododecane were studied in the range of 27–190°C. The activation energies found were in the order cC6H12 > cC12H24 > cC8H16, which was explained as due to their ring strain which has the same order. The following log k1 was obtained using the known Arrhenius parameters for CCl3 radical recombination: (Formula Presented.)
