The influence of Neutron Irradiation in CR-39 polymer

The script allocates the influence of neutron irradiations on the structural and optical properties of CR-39. The structural properties of the polymer have been examined using the FTIR spectrum of the pristine and neutron beam irradiated polymer. The studies reveal the increase the intensity of some bands with neutron irradiation pointing the increase in the unsaturated behavior of the polymer. The optical properties analyzed using the UV-Vis spectra made it evident that CR-39 gets easily influenced at a fluence of 1016 n/cm2. The glassy characteristics of the polymer also found to diminish with increasing neutron irradiation. Significant variations in the property profile of the polymer have been observed at higher neutron fluence.
