LR-115 SSNTD Radon Detectors

Product Description

LR-115 Solid State Nuclear Track Detectors (SSNTDs) are widely used for long-term measurement of indoor radon concentration. The detector records alpha particle tracks produced by radon and its progeny, which are later revealed through chemical etching and microscopic analysis.

Applications

• Indoor radon monitoring in dwellings and workplaces
• Environmental radiation surveys
• Geological and uranium exploration studies
• Radon risk assessment programs

Key Features

• Suitable for long-term exposure measurements
• Passive detector (no power required)
• High sensitivity to alpha radiation
• Well-established and internationally accepted technique

Processing Method

After exposure, the detectors are chemically etched under controlled conditions to reveal alpha tracks, which are then counted using optical microscopy or automated image analysis systems.
