Abstract
Radiolysis of the mixtures GeH 4/C 2H 6 and GeH 4/C 3H 8 have been studied. The decomposition of the parent molecules leads to solid and volatile products. The decomposition of GeH 4, according to the composition of the mixtures, is 1.7–2.5 times larger than in pure GeH 4. Also and hydrocarbons decompose 1.6–3.4 times more than in systems containing the pure reactants. The formation of the solid, a polymer containing Ge, C and H, has been attributed to a polymerization process initiated by the germylene-like species, while the gaseous products seem to derive from germyl-like species. The radical mechanism seems to prevail on the ionic.
