Extruding plastic scintillator at Fermilab [PDF]
2003 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 ...
