Scintillation Resource Selector
This tool is designed to narrow down the available resources through a series of application details. By using the filters the many documents on this website and the products offered will be reduced to the most obvious.
This should be used as a guide as there are many aspects to consider when choosing a scintillator and product packaging. The final selection for your specific application should be discussed with your sales representative.
Criteria
Neutron detection products that are specifically formulated for the efficient detection of neutrons in the presence of gamma radiation.
BC-428 is a clear, transparent plastic scintillator with a bright green fluorescence. It is intended for use with photodiodes and charged coupled devices (CCDs) which have optical sensitivities in the green and red portions of the spectrum.
BC-430 emits in the red region which makes it ideal for use with silicon photodiodes and red-enhanced photomultiplier tubes
BC-452 detects low-energy (<100 keV) at high count rates. The standard material contains 1% or 2% lead by weight. The plastic incorporates the lead by means of organic-metallic chemistry which yields a clear scintillator.
BC-430 emits in the red region which makes it ideal for use with silicon photodiodes and red-enhanced photomultiplier tubes
The BC-440 family of scintillators provides the high-temperature characteristics of polystyrene-based scintillators without the diminished light yield associated with such formulas.
BC-408, BC-412 and BC-416 are plastic scintillators with the highest light output. These are also economical for use in large areas.
BC-400 and BC-404 plastic scintillators are largely used as thin sheets for alpha & beta detection. BC-404 can also be used in fast-counting applications.
BC-418, BC-420 and BC-422 are intended for use in ultra-fast timing and ultra-fast counting applications. BC-422Q is BC-422 quenched with various weight percentages of benzophenone to improve timing properties
