Evolution with H atom fluence of the C–H (a), C=O (b), N–H (c), and N=C=O (HOCN) (d) normalized column density (filled circles). In the first three cases, the normalization factor is the corresponding initial column densities, while for HNCO, the data are normalized to the initial value of the column density of NH2CHO. The best fit to the data (solid lines), following first order kinetic relations (1 − a1(1 − e−σdFH) and a2(1 − e−σfFH)) are also shown. The first equation refers to the destruction with the boundary condition that considers a residual reactant for FH = ∞ (i.e., H atoms cannot react with the deeper ice layers). The second equation refers to the formation limited by the availability of the reactants. The estimated destruction (σd) and formation (σf) cross-sections and the asymptotic destruction of NH2CHO (a1) and asymptotic formation of HNCO (a2) are also reported.
