Nielsen, J. Sehested, S. Langer, E. Ljungström, I. Wängberg Title: UV absorption spectra and kinetics for alkyl and alkyl peroxy radicals originating from di-tert-butyl ether Journal/Source: Chem. Phys. Lett., 238, 359-364, (1995); http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/0009-2614(95)00401-O Data: diagram, table Energy/Wavelength range: 220 - 300 nm Resolution: 5 nm Temperature: 296 K Temperature dependence: no Pressure/Concentration: Phase: gas pH: Comments: Absorption cross sections were quantified over the wavelength range 220-330 nm. At 240 nm, sigma(CH3)3COC(CH3)2CH2 = (3.6 ± 0.4) × 10-18 cm2 molecule-1 and at 260 nm, sigma(CH3)3COC(CH3)2CH2O2 = (3.8 ± 0.3) × 10-18 cm2 molecule-1 have been obtained.
