Study on the Characteristics of a Scintillator for Beta-ray Detection using Epoxy Resin
A thin plate of a plastic scintillator for detecting a beta-ray was developed. The plastic scintillator was made using epoxy resin and organic scintillators such as 2.5-diphenyloxazole (PPO) and 1,4-bis [5-phenyl-2-oxazole] benzene (POPOP).

Plastic Scintillators. II. The Synthesis of Some Distyrylbenzene Derivatives as Wavelength Shifters in Plastic Scintillators [PDF]
Abstract The synthesis and the absorption and fluorescence spectra of 2, 5-dimethoxy-1, 4-distyryl-benzene derivatives and the related compounds are reported on. Their absorption and their fluorescence spectra, are then discussed. According to the spectra, some of the compounds synthesized here are better wavelength shifters in plastic ...
