Abstract

Abstract In order to elucidate the effects of discharge gap distance and discharge current on SGH2O2, SGOH and SGH, the study of this series was further made by using a new discharge apparatus. Both of acidic aqueous solutions of ferrous sulfate and ferrous sulfate-cupric sulfate have been selected as the reaction systems suitable for this purpose. Experiments were made in the range from 3 mm to 9 mm of discharge gap distance and from 0.2 mA to 0.5 mA of discharge current. Each SG value of H2O2, OH and H varied with gap distance (5→9 mm) and current (0.2→0.5 mA) as follows; in the former, 1.0→1.2, 1.8→0.9 and 1.1→0.9: in the latter, 1.4→1.2, 0.6→0.9, 0.8→0.9. Based on the value of Y(H2O2)/Y(H+OH), it was concluded that (1) the silent discharge reactions under a longer gap distance correspond to the radiolysis having a value of higher LET, that (2) although those under a lower current do also to a higher one, the effect of discharge current on the value of apparent LET is relatively small.
