Abstract
H-2 yields of n-hexadecane irradiated at 330-400 degrees C were determined and compared with that at room temperature. The temperature dependence of G (H-2) was found to be insignificant up to 330 degrees C. High G(H-2) values above 330 degrees C indicated the enhanced dehydrogenation of hydrocarbons . Compared to alkane, irradiation of alkene at high temperature produces hi gher H-2 yields as shown from the correlation between G(H-2) and the fracti on of alkene. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd.
