Abstract

The spectra of the light (volatile) radiolysis products of polymers had similar structures, but differed with respect to steric configuration (cisand trans-polyisoprenes, cisand trans-polybutadiene), without differing in any other respect. None of the polymers used in our investigation had radiolysis products with the same spectrum as tha t of other amongst them (with the exception of cisand trans-isomers). The radiation-chemical method can be used, like the pyrolytic [3, 4], in a qualitative identification of polymers. The outstanding feature of the radiation-chemical method is the high sensitivity with respect to the hydrocarbon substituents present in the main chain.
