Trimethylamine is a major product of the yradiolysis of De-Acidite FF, a polystyrene-based, quaternary ammonium anion-exchange resin. In the irradiated dry resin G(Me,N) = 4.0-4-4 and in the slurried state (resin:water = 1 :2, w/w) G(Me,N) = 3.2. When the samples were slurried with solutions of electron scavengers (N,O, H+.NO3-) decreased values of G(Me3N) were obtained. The results suggest that the slurried resin is deaminated both by direct radiolysis and by the reaction of hydrated electrons produced by the radiolysis of the slurrying water.
