Thoron exhalation rate in stony materials: A simplified approach

Construction and Building Materials, 2018
Abstract A significant percentage of the thoron present in indoor environments is often attributable to building materials. It is therefore interesting to estimate the thoron exhalation rate from these materials. However, the detection of thoron is not a simple task: the very short half life of thoron and the lack of strong gamma emissions, prevents ...

ASSESSMENT OF RADIOACTIVITY AND RADON EXHALATION RATE IN EGYPTIAN CEMENT

Health Physics, 2004
The cement industry is considered as one of the basic industries that plays an important role in the national economy of developing countries. Activity concentration of 238U, 232Th, and 40K in local cement types from different Egyptian factories has been measured using a shielded HPGe detector.

Influence of Humidity on Building Material's Radon Exhalation Rate

Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2013
In this paper, the humidity of building materials were controlled by adopting the inorganic salts saturated solutions, and the radon exhalation rate of building materials were measured by the active carbon method which under the different humidity conditions.
