The radiochemical reaction products of T 2 /DT-CO system with different tritium pressures were studied in this work. The results show that the pressure of tritium and reactant was the key factor affecting the reaction rate of T 2 /DT-CO system, and the reaction products were closely related to the initial tritium concentration. Gradual evolution of reaction products including multi-carbon and multi-oxygen organic compounds were jointly affected by tritium decay in reactant molecules and bond breaking of reactant molecules by β-rays released from tritium decay. In addition, the tritium concentration in the deuterium-tritium mixture also affected the reaction products. High tritium concentration was conducive to the formation of multi-oxygen organics, while low tritium concentration was helpful to produce multi-carbon organics. • The initial tritium partial pressure determines the reaction rate of DT/T 2 -CO system. • The Raman spectra of the condensed products were measured. • The morphologies of the condensed products were shown. • The tritium concentration in deuterium-tritium mixture affects the type of products. • A new irradiation reaction mechanism of converting syngas into organics was summarized.
