  1. 238. IAEA activities to support development of radiation treatment of polymers
    Valeriia Starovoitova
    3/18/24, 3:20 PM
    Industrial Application of Accelerators
    Invited Talk

    Promoting the safe and secure industrial uses of radiation technologies is one of the core activities of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). To support its Member States in strengthening their capabilities the IAEA, through its Radiochemistry and Radiation Technology Section (RCRTS) promotes the utilization of both source-based and accelerator-based radiation technology in fields...

    Industrial Application of Accelerators
    Invited Talk

    Staff at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), at the request of the Office of Radiological Security (ORS) within the U.S. National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA), identified impediments for those companies desiring to transition from cobalt-60 to an accelerator technology for processing product. One of those impediments identified was a dose simulation software tool that was...

  3. 118. Radiation-Induced Modification of LDPE: Effects of Electron Beam Accelerator Exposure
    Mrs ZAOUAK AMIRA (National center of Nuclear Sciences and technologies, Tunisia)
    3/18/24, 4:00 PM
    Industrial Application of Accelerators
    Oral Presentation

    Radiation is currently being exploited to modify polymers in order to improve properties for various applications. This study thoroughly examines the effects of high energy electron beam irradiation (10 MeV) on low density polyethylene (LDPE) material. LDPE was subjected to a broad range of doses ranging between 10 and 300 kGy at room temperature under different conditions. Extensive...

  4. 230. ABS AND PP ASSESSMENT AND RESPONSE TO GAMMA RAY VS ELECTRON BEAM EXPOSURE
    Ms Nazarena Ciávaro (National Atomic Energy Commission)
    3/18/24, 4:20 PM
    Industrial Application of Accelerators
    Oral Presentation

    Although medical devices are sterilized in Argentina using ionizing radiation, electrons beams sterilization is of great interest. This is partly due to the lack of knowledge regarding their comparative effects on materials (primarily polymers). Thus, the objective of this work is to study the effect of both radiation sources: gamma rays (60Co) and electrons beams on the polymers...

  5. 203. Effect of Radiation on the Commonly Used Natural Rubber and Silicone Rubber in Medical Applications and Devices
    Mrs Ceren Kurtuluş (Mersin University Faculty of Engineering, Chemical Engineering Department, 33343 Mersin, Turkiye)
    3/18/24, 4:40 PM
    Industrial Application of Accelerators
    Oral Presentation

    Polymers are inevitably used for many medical applications and devices. Development of the polymeric materials over the recent decades provided valuable commodity materials to be used in different medical applications such as single-use medical devices, implants, drug delivery and packaging systems because of their versatility and economic advantages and their ability to withstand...
