Abstract

The effect of γ-irradiation on the thermal decomposition of Pb(NO 3) 2 has been studied by the gas evolution method. Irradiation enhances the decomposition rate, the effect increasing with dose. Post-irradiation annealing tends to restore the decomposition characteristics of the original unirradiated substance. The data have been analysed using the Prout-Tompkins relationship, the first order rate law and the contracting volume formula.
