Description
In an attempt to characterize overhead projector transparency (OPT) as a detector material we have carried out its elemental analysis. It has been found to be a triacetate. The optimum etching conditions were found out and the bulk etch rate VG and its activation energy Ea have been determined. The maximum etchable track lengths of 252Cf fission fragments and 132Xe ranges at 14.5 and 5.9 MeV/u in OPT have been measured. Further work on correlation of VT and dE/dx is in progress. (author)
