Modification of thermal, optical and structural properties of Bayfol nuclear track detector by alpha particles irradiation

In addition, optical and structural property studies using refractive index, IR spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction measurements were performed on non-irradiated and irradiated Bayfol samples. The results indicate that the anisotropic character, absorbance and the degree of ordering of the Bayfol polymer are dependent on the alpha particle dose.
