A Pulse Radiolysis Study of Oil/Water Microemulsions

摘要

The spectrum and yield of e_aq~- in quaternary benzene/water and dodecane/water microemulsions were found to be identical with those in pure water. This indicates probably the scavenging of excess electrons produced in the oil by water. To the contrary, the yield of OH radicals, determined after scavenging and conversion into (SCN)2~-, was proportional to water content of the microemulsion. the e_aq~- decay and the total yield of peroxides in aerated microemulsion were determined and the characteristics of oxidation in microemulsion was discussed.
