Systematic studies were carried out to discover/unveil a best etchant for CR-39, polymeric
nuclear track detector. In this context, different concentrations of NaOH, KOH, LiOH and Ba …

An analysis concerning the bulk etch rate of different type of CR-39 subjected to a chemical
etching in 5.4 N KOH solution at 80° C is carried out in the present work. The response of …

Choice of chemical etchant and temperature are pivotal to the successful employment of
organic/polymeric solid state nuclear track detectors for determining the fluence of charged …

The present study aims to determine the effect of heat treatment on the bulk etch rate of un-
irradiated and gamma irradiated CR-39 detector. Track density and the damage in samples …

In the present paper the effect of the presence of Na2CO3 on the etching characteristics of
NaOH has been presented quantitatively. Six CR-39 detectors were etched at 50, 60 and …

The present paper describes the development and applications of nuclear track detection
technique in Pakistan. Pakistan entered in the field of nuclear tracks in early 1970s when it …

In the present study the dependence of both the bulk etch rate for Solid state nuclear track
detectors (SSNTD) on etching time and the removal thickness percentage on etchant …

We determine the behavior of track etch rate VT along the tracks in CR-39 detectors
exposed to fission fragments from 252 Cf source. CR-39 detectors are etched at 70 C in …

In the current study, the bulk etch rate, the removal thickness percentage and the track
density have been examined for gamma-irradiated at doses ranging from 0 to 100 kGy. After …

The effects of the X-ray irradiation and chemical etching on the physical and optical
properties of CR-39 plastic detectors were investigated for different doses of X-ray. CR-39 …
