We would like to present here with the eyes of the chemist the most recent developments of
plastic scintillators (PS) for neutron detection. This review covers the period from 2000 to
August 2014, and is fragmented in two main chapters. The first chapter deals with the
chemical modifications for thermal neutron capture, whereas the second chapter presents
the various strategies used to enhance the response to fast neutrons via pulse shape
discrimination. For each chapter the theory is also explained.
