摘要：
Etched-track polyallyl diglycol carbonate (PADC) dosemeters have been in use at the Paul Scherrer Institute since 1998 in neutron dosimetry for individual monitoring. In the last years, the availability of PADC materials from different manufacturers has grown, and different etching conditions were proposed, with the intention to improve the quality and overall performance of PADC in individual neutron monitoring. The goal of the present study was to compare the performance of different PADC materials and to investigate the influence of different etching conditions on sensitivity to fast neutrons and lower detection limit. The comparison covers six different PADC materials and eight different etching conditions.
