New polymers for solid state nuclear track detection

Diallyl maleate homopolymer and its copolymers containing allyl diglycol carbonate as nuclear track detector

“…The homopolymer of N-allyloxycarbonyl diethanolaminebis (allyl carbonate) (NADAC), and copolymer of NADAC and ADC were prepared similarly. It was found that the latter was more sensitive as compared to commercially available track detector (Mascarenhas et al, 2006). The copolymers with various ratio of DEAS and ADC were prepared.…”

Feasibility of probing solid state nuclear tracks by thermal analysis method

“…Furthermore, this method can be applicable to various samples and its measurement results are theoretically better than the currently used leading microscope observation method. The improvement and exploration of new methods for observing and recording solid state nuclear tracks is an important research topic [5][6][7][8][9][10] in the study of solid state nuclear tracks at home and abroad. The related work is in progress.…”

Designing polymers for nuclear track detection

“…The monomers containing even more than one radiation sensitive groups with functionality ranging from two to eight were synthesized in this way. All the unbranched monomers [1][2][3][4][5] containing two identical radiation sensitive group like carbonate, sulphonate or sulphite have a functionality of four and were synthesized as shown in Scheme 1. Branched monomers [6][7][8][9] with higher functionality ranging from two to eight and containing more than two radiation sensitive groups like nitrate, nitro, carbamate, carbonate were used as shown in Schem 2, to prepare polymers so that more and more dense, 3D network of cross links is formed.…”
