Radiation applications

The tubes of the new MCB series are a highly integrated and reliable ready-to-use component for radiation applications, which until now were not feasible due to the lack of robustness, size, or stability requirements.

Table 3 lists the selected properties [16] that we have measured for several commercially available acrylate resins manufactured by the Sartomer Company and the Rohm and Haas Company. The resins were cured in an AECL Gammacell Model 240. The temperature rise was measured for an 8-g sample using Acsion s (formerly AECL Radiation Applications Branch) Gamma Calorimetry method [17]. All of this information is being used to evaluate the applicability of EB-cured acrylate adhesives for repairing composite structures. Combinations of these adhesives can be used to create electron-curable adhesives suitable for composite repair. 

Fluoropolymers utilizing high molecular weights and copolymerized and alloyed with polyethylene, should be used in most radiation applications. High-dose-rate E-beam processing may reduce oxidative degradation. When irradiated, PTFE and PFA are... 

Over the last few decades, the use of radiation sources for industrial applications has been widespread. The areas of radiation applications are as follows (i) Wires and cables (ii) heat shrinkable tubes and films (iii) polymeric foam (iv) coating on wooden panels (v) coating on thin film-video/audio tapes (vi) printing and lithography (vii) degradation of polymers (viii) irradiation of diamonds (ix) vulcanization of mbber and rubber latex (x) grain irradiation. 

More than 200 users annually consume over US 55 million of light stabilisers. IR absorbers (e.g. amine, antimony salt mixture) protect against IR radiation applicable in PC, PMMA, PVC, etc. 

Applied radiation chemistry has gained considerable momentum since the late sixties and early seventies, and it would be futile to describe all the progress made in a single chapter. Spinks and Woods (1990) have nicely summarized the synthetic and processing aspects of the field in the latest edition of their book. Proceedings of various international conferences on specific aspects of radiation applications have appeared sporadically in Radiation Physics and Chemistry starting from middle seventies, of which mention may be made of vol. 9 (1977), vol. 14 (1979), vol. 25 (1985), vol. 31 (1988), vol. 34 (1989), vols. 35-36 (1990), vol. 37 (1991), vol. 40 (1992), vol. 42 (1993), and vol. 46 (1995).

Integrating systems, the main representative of which is the TV-tube detector, do not suffer from this limitation. In these systems, the signals of many photon events are accumulated in the detector itself, and only the integrated result is stored. At first glance, the integrating detectors seem to be advantageous for synchrotron radiation applications. However, several drawbacks have to be taken into account as we will see. 

The only disadvantage in synchrotron radiation applications is the apparent counting rate limitation due to the propagation delay in the line. But, a comparison of this propagation delay with charge collection times in other methods is still advantageous for the delay-line method. 

Parallel electrode devices are certainly very promising as PSD s for synchrotron radiation applications. The spatial resolution can be good in both, X- and Y-directions, because no quantization takes place along individual wires.

The controlled degradation of polymers of large molecular mass - or even of cross-linked molecular structures -is a promising field of radiation application. 

Indium-tin oxide (ITO) is indium oxide doped with tin oxide. Thin films of ITO have commercially valuable properties it is transparent, electrically conducting and reflects IR radiation. Applications of ITO are varied. It is used as a coating material for flat-panel computer displays, for coating architectural glass panels, and in electrochromic devices. Coating motor vehicle and aircraft windscreens and motor vehicle rear windows allows them to be electrically heated for de-icing...
