Scintillators

Plastic Scintillators

The plastic scintillators have a quick signal with a decay time of 2-4 nanoseconds and relatively high light output. Plastic scintillators have excellent durability, and by mold and other means, they can be made into almost any shape you want, including cast sheets, blocks, rods, cylinders, and thin films. 

Hangzhou Shalom EO offers a variety of plastic scintillators: Lithium glass scintillators SG101 is made from LI-6 enriched glass materials for thermal neutron detection; Plastic scintillators SP101 emit at 423nm and are often used for gamma-ray detection, available in large size and easy to assembly with Photomultiplier Tubes (PMT). The plastic scintillators SP102 also emit at 423nm and are always made into the sheet, which is suitable for beta-ray detection, and plastic scintillators SP121 are made from SP102 sheet with a layer of ZnS(Ag) painting, which emits the dual wavelength of 423nm and 450nm, which fits for both alpha and beta ray detection. Plastic scintillators SP122 series is made of ZnS(Ag) layer painted on SP101 scintillators, SP122 is suitable for low energy gamma-ray detection. When ZnS(Ag) is painted on a Poly Methyl Methacrylate (PMMA) sheet or blocks, plastic scintillators SP123 is made, SP123 is often used for α-ray detection.
