EPR dosimetric properties of radiation - Formed radicals in arginine monohydrochloride

► A new arginine monohydrochloride rods has been prepared by a simple technique. ► The dosimetric characteristics of rods containing different concentrations of arginine monohydrochloride. ► These rod dosimeters have insignificant dependence on the change of relative humidity during irradiation. ► The temperature coefficient was found to be +0.22% °C−1. ► The overall uncertainty for calibration of the arginine monohydrochloride rod dosimeters at 2σ was found to be 2.85%.
