Publication date: Available online 2 December 2014 Source: Radiation Measurements Author(s): Hidehito Nakamura , Yoshiyuki Shirakawa , Nobuhiro Sato , Hisashi Kitamura , Sentaro Takahashi Undoped aromatic ring polymers are potential scintillation materials. Here, we characterise poly (phenyl sulfone) (PPSU) for radiation detection. The amber-coloured transparent resin emits bluish-white fluorescence with 390-nm maximum. It has an excitation maximum of 340 nm, and has a density of 1.29 g/cm 3 . The effective refractive index based on its emission spectrum is 1.75. The light yield is almost equal to that of poly (ethylene terephthalate), which is a transparent resin. These results demonstrate that PPSU can be used as a component substrate in polymer blends for altering optical characteristics.
