Novel epoxy-bPBD-BisMSB composite plastic scintillator for alpha, beta and gamma radiation detection [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
A composite plastic scintillator is prepared by uniform dispersion of organic fluorophores 2-(4-Biphenylyl)-5-(4-tert-butylphenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole (b-PBD) and 1,4-bis(2-methylstyryl) benzene (Bis-MSB) in epoxy resin followed by curing at room ...

Extruding plastic scintillator at Fermilab [PDF]

open access: yes2003 IEEE Nuclear Science Symposium. Conference Record (IEEE Cat. No.03CH37515), 2003
An understanding of the costs involved in the production of plastic scintillators and the development of a less expensive material have become necessary with the prospects of building very large plastic scintillation detectors. Several factors contribute to the high cost of plastic scintillating sheets, but the principal reason is the labor-intensive ...
