✦ Synopsis


For a purified sample of poly(vinyl chloride), it is found that radiation of wavelength less than 300 nm causes dehydrochlorination. It appears that polychromatic radiation yields a constant ratio of concentrations of polyenes, even from the very early stages of reaction. It is proposed that energy transfer is an important step in the photodecomposition of poly(vinyl chloride).

Previous papers in this series have dealt with various

o.e aspects of the photochemically induced decomposition of poly(vinyl chloride) [1][2][3][4]. In this paper, the effects 0.7 of varying the wavelengths of incident radiation are in-, vestigated.
