Abstract
A method based on the use of gaseous radioactive tracers was devised for the measurement of gas solubilities in liquids. With this method solubilities of krypton and xenon in liquid scintillator solvents were examined at 15–40°C. Solubility data obtained show that the amount of krypton which can be introduced into liquid scintillators is biggest in toluene-based liquid scintillators and decreases in the order of methanol>dioxan>ethyleneglycol. For xenon the solubility decreases in the order of dioxan>methanol>ethyleneglycol. Independent of the kind of solvent the solubility both of krypton and xenon was found to decrease progressively with increasing temperature.
