Description
CR-39 plastic sheets were irradiated with 12C-ions of 26 MeV/nuc to investigate the etching behaviour. The influence of NaOH etchant at various normalities (4n - 8n) and different temperatures (300C -800C) was analyzed. The bulk etch rate as well as the track etch rate can be fitted by analytical functions vsub(b)(n,T) and vsub(t)(REL,n,T). The normalized track etch rate in this region only depends on the restricted energy loss REL(200eV). Thus the charge resolution does not change with different etching conditions of NaOH in the range of our measurements. At 700C the stirring of the etchant and the concentration of its Benax admixture have no effect on the bulk etch rate. (author)
