The irradiation chemistry of hexamethyldisiloxane has been studied in detail and product yields have been established for both gaseous and liquid products. Significant differences from previously reported values, most notably in the methane and in low and intermediate molecular weight liquid product, were found.
A materials balance is attempted and the products found are rationalized on the basis of fragmentation patterns found in mass spectrometric studies.
The new G values are sufficiently different from previous report to have completely justified this investigation. More so in view of the fact that the present data are to be used as the standard for later investigation.
