Description

The author describes the measurements of neutron dose using CR-39 detectors, its method, etching condition and results of field application. The optimum etching condition found by orthogonal experimental design was 6.5 mol/L KOH solution, at 70 degree C 7 hours. The calibration factor was 7.0 x 10-3 mSv/tr·cm-2. The detectable limit was 0.06 mSv
