18. Since there is not a universal understanding of the words "homolysis" and "thermolysis", we will define these terms for the purpose of this paper in agreement with their most common usage. "Homolysis" will be taken to mean thermally induced, unimolecular homolytic scission of a bond to produce two free radicals. " Thermolysis", on the other hand, will be used to refer to the assemblage of reactions that result from heating a chemical substance or mixture of substances. For compounds that are predominantly H-C-O structures, these reactions, in the absence of heterogeneous catalysts, will tend to be largely those involving the formation or destruction of uncharged free radicals.
