Abstract:The elevated radiation resistance of a microplastic based on Rusar fibres even in combined exposure to ionizing radiation and mechanical loading was demonstrated. This is probably due to the high degree of orientation of the polymer fibres, so that radiation chemical decomposition reactions are suppressed and the purely thermal effect of the radiation is experimentally recorded.Due to the unique combination of high strength properties and relatively low density, organic aramid fibres are widely used in industr… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
