Description

Application of differents dosimeter systems: Standard Frickie, Modify Frickie, Yellow Perspex, Amber Perspex, Red Perspex and Clear Prespex, for industrial irradiation were studied. Dosimeter expositions in the range 0.05 KGy to 10 KGy were applied using both a Gammacell 220 source and a semi-industrial irradiator of Co-60, with dosis rates of 0.2 KGy/hr and 4 KGy/hr respectivily. During the experiment variables like storage temperature with 20, 35 and 45 degC were studied. Experimental results point out that Standard Frickie and Perspex dosimeter system can be used successfully with a very low dependence upon storage temperature and storage time
