Electret Properties of CR-39

The behaviour of CR-39 (which is a solid track detector) as an electret is compared with other classical electret materials (Teflon, Mylar). The initial charge obtained, principally by a corona method, and its decay have been studied; the result for the charge of CR-39 is similar to that for other p...

Zusammenfassung:	The behaviour of CR-39 (which is a solid track detector) as an electret is compared with other classical electret materials (Teflon, Mylar). The initial charge obtained, principally by a corona method, and its decay have been studied; the result for the charge of CR-39 is similar to that for other polymer electrets and the decay is intermediate between that of Teflon and Mylar. Some results of X ray and neutron irradiations are then presented. They show significant responses of CR-39 subjected to X ray beams of approximately 10-2 Gy.
