The CR-39 track detector was used to create alpha particle tracks using molten hydrated
barium hydroxide (MBH). In this experiment, seventeen CR-39 plates with a thickness of 250 …

Chemical etching is an important step for enlargement of latent tracks in solid state nuclear
track detectors (SSNTD). In the etching process, bulk and track etch rates are determined by …

The use of CR-39 as a fast alpha particles detector using a new etching condition have been
optimized. 241 Am source was used for irradiating CR-39 detectors with alpha particles in …

In the present study, for the first time, nuclear tracks of α-particles were created on diallyl
maleate-allyl diglycol carbonate (DAM-ADC) using molten hydrated barium hydroxide …

In this work, electron induced modifications on the bulk etch rate, structural and optical
parameters of CR-39 polymer were studied using gravimetric, FTIR (Fourier Transform …

The recently introduced microwave induced chemical etching (MICE) has been found to be
a fast and effective etching technique for CR-39 detector. In the present work, the MICE …

Natural radioactivity is released into the environment during the combustion process of coal
at various thermal power plants. Coal contains higher contents of α-emitting radionuclides …

Microwave induced chemical etching (MICE) has been successfully employed in reducing
the etching duration using NaOH etchant. In this work, the MICE technique has been studied …

A CR-39 based method was developed for measuring the ultra-trace alpha radio activities in
aqueous samples having curie levels of γ/β-radio activities. The chemical etching method …

The concentrations of 238 U, 232 Th and 40 K in the granite materials significantly contribute
to the environmental radioactivity during its cutting, molding and processing during daily and …
