THERMAL ANNEALING KINETICS OF RADICALS FORMED BY THE RADIOLYSIS IN POLYCRYSTALLINE SOLID STATE OF ARGININE

The radiolysis with gamma radiation of arginine, in solid polycrystalline state, was performed at room temperature. The EPR spectra, recorded after radiolysis allowed the identification of three paramagnetic centers. A p...

ELECTRON TRANSFER IN THE MOLECULAR COMPLEX OF DONOR-POLYMER-ACCEPTOR

Electron transfer in the molecular complex donor-polymer-acceptor type was investigated. The carbon chain, which has two possible conformations (homogeneous and dimerized), was taken as polymer. The theoretical model, wh...

EXPLOSION PRESSURES OF CONFINED DEFLAGRATIONS PROPAGATING IN STOICHIOMETRIC GASEOUS MIXTURES OF LOWER ALKANES WITH AIR

An experimental study on maximum explosion pressure in closed vessel deflagration of stoichiometric gaseous mixtures, for various initial pressures within 0.3 – 1.2 bar and ambient initial temperature is reported. Explos...

A DSC STUDY OF gamma-AMINOBUTYRIC ACID GAMMA IRRADIATED

The behaviour on heating of irradiated with gamma rays and non-irradiated γ-amino-butyric acid (γ-AMB) was investigated by means of differential scanning calorimetry. γ-AMB decomposes before melting.
