  • Gamma Irradiation of Hexafluorobenzene1 R
    JOURNAL OF RESEARCH of the National Bureau of Standards-A. Physics and Chemi stry Vol. 64A, No. 4, July- August 1960 Gamma Irradiation of Hexafluorobenzene1 R. E. Florin, 1. A. Wall, and D. W. Brown r, (March 27, 1960) Mi xtures of hexafluorobenze ne a,nd benzene were irradi ated in li quid phase by means of a C060 cram ma ource at 20° a nd a t '2 18° C. P crfiuorohep tane a nd vari ous binar.v mixt ures involvi~ g perfluorohepta nc, hexaflu or obe ll ze ne, be nze ne, and cyclo hexane were a lso in'adi­ ated at 20° C. H exafluorobenzene rese mbled benzene very closely in its behavior upon r adio\ysis. Generall y t he fluorocarbon-hydrocarbon mixt ures evolved much mo rc SiF4 (indicatin g the formation of J-IF, which r eacts with the glass vessel) than the pure flu oro­ carbon components. The polymer from hexaflu o robenzene-benzrne mixtures was p r oba~ly rich in cyclohexadiene and cyclohexene un its, I' csembiing t hat from pu re benzene, a nd Its co mposition ratio exhibited a strong "altern atin g" tendency. The res ults a re discussed in terms of free-radical and excited-state mechanisms. r\ t 218 0 C hexaflu orobenzene a nd a lso its mixtures with benze ne showed qualitative difl'erences from their behavior a t 20° C, a ltho ugh t he G va lues for SiF4 and polymer rema ined moderate. 1. Introduction more resistant than hydrocarbons to heat, and also ftromatic compounds more resistant than aliphatic.
