Radiation-Sensitive Film Compositions for Measuring Absorbed Doses Within the 100–1000 Gy Range

  • 186 Accesses

Abstract

This work was aimed at investigating the spectral features and dose sensitivities of film dosimetry systems developed at the All-Russian Scientific Research Institute of Physical Technical and Radio Technical Measurements (VNIIFTRI) and approved as absorbed-dose reference materials. The properties of new radiation-sensitive compositions for high-intensity ionising radiation in the absorbed-dose range from 100 to 1000 Gy were studied. Dosimetric measurements in this range are in demand in the sphere of ionising radiation technologies used in agriculture and food-processing industries.
