AbstractAbstract
[en] This work aimed to study the dosimetric characteristics of the polymer of the polymer ''poly-[ 1, l-bis (ethynyl) -4,4-biphenyl (bis-tributylphosphine) Pt (11)]'' (Pt-DEBP) compared to radiation gamma. The Pt-DEBP polymer, containing ten monomer units, was then dissolved in organic solvents as chloroform and toluene. The samples were irradiated at four concentrations (0.0500, 0.0375, 0.0250, 0.0113 mg / mL) in duplicate, with radiation doses ranging from 1 to 90 Gy. The results were evaluated based on spectroscopic techniques such as optical absorption spectroscopy (UV -Vis), fluorescence (emission), time resolved fluorescence (FRT) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR). For DEBP-Pt solutions in chloroform, there is a shift in the position of the main optical absorption band (πt - π*) to lower wavelength (blue-shift), allied to a decreasing absorption intensity with increasing radiation dose. In fluorescence spectroscopy, there was a shift to longer wavelengths (redshift) allied to an increasing emission intensity with increasing radiation dose. FRT experiments on irradiated samples dissolved in chloroform indicated the presence of a new emitter center. FTIR spectra show the incorporation of chlorine in the polymer chain, justifying the blue-shift observed in the absorption spectra and the new emission center. In addition, the behavior of linear results in the absorption and fluorescence studies was investigated based on the relationship between the wavelength of maximum absorption/emission and the radiation dose. For both cases, a linear behavior was observed in relation to the sample concentration. Repeatability and stability tests were also performed. For the samples dissolved in toluene, there was no significant shift of the spectrum of absorption or fluorescence for all doses. The results show that the Pt-DEBP polymer dissolved in chloroform can be used as a dosimeter for x-ray doses between 1 - 30 Gy based on the changes in absorption and/or emission spectra. Based on this results the polymer has been identified as a potential dosimeter for low radiation doses - less than 1 Gy (personal dosimetry). (author)
