Popis: Surface oxides form on graphite exposed to radiolysed CO2 at 425 K by a process which is first order with respect to sites available for sorption. The oxide is formed radiolytically and is at least partially decomposed on heating the graphite to 775 K. Oxide formation appears to be an essential preliminary to gasification since negligible gasification takes place from an oxide free surface. A mechanism is proposed for the oxidation of graphite by radiolysed CO2.
