Abstract:
Abstract— β‐Carotene, at concentrations 0.1 m M , inhibits the formation of hydroperoxides and other oxidation products in a refined petroleum oil exposed to Pyrex‐filtered UV. The effect appears to be due to 1 O 2 quenching. A mechanism incorporating 1 O 2 and radical processes is proposed as a model for environmental photooxidation of petroleum.
