Plastic Scintillator – High-Transparency Detector for X-Ray & Gamma Radiation

Plastic scintillators are versatile radiation detection materials engineered for high performance in X-ray and gamma ray sensing. Made from a polystyrene matrix, these scintillators combine high transparency, exceptional durability, and robust resistance to vibration, impact, and moisture??making them ideal for both laboratory and field applications. By efficiently converting radiation energy into visible light (423 nm), they deliver reliable, fast signals for real-time radiation monitoring and imaging. Our plastic scintillators are manufactured with strict quality control to ensure uniform light output and structural integrity. Whether for portable gamma detectors or industrial X-ray systems, they excel in environments where ruggedness and consistent…

Description

Key Advantages
High Transparency
Exceptional clarity ensures minimal light loss during signal propagation, maximizing photon transfer to photodetectors. This high transparency enhances signal-to-noise ratios, critical for detecting low-dose radiation in X-ray imaging or environmental monitoring.
Superior Durability
Designed to withstand mechanical stress, including vibration and impact??making them far more rugged than fragile crystalline scintillators (e.g., NaI(Tl) or CsI). Ideal for portable devices, industrial machinery, or field operations where rough handling is common.
Resistance to Moisture & Environmental Factors
Unlike hygroscopic crystal scintillators, plastic scintillators are inherently moisture-resistant, eliminating the need for hermetic sealing. They perform reliably in humid environments, reducing maintenance costs and extending service life.
Fast Decay Time (2.4 ns)
Enables rapid signal processing, minimizing pile-up in high-count-rate scenarios (e.g., busy industrial X-ray lines or gamma-ray spectrometers). This speed is crucial for real-time applications requiring instant data feedback.
Technical Specifications: The base material is polystyrene, with a softening temperature of 75 ??C, an emission wavelength of 423 nm, a decay time of 2.4 ns, a density of 1.02 g/cm3, and an operating temperature range of -40 ~ 55 ??C.
