| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Polystyrene-based composite fibers combined with a 6-nitro BIPS, and a BaFCl:Eu2+, were developed for the coloration of X-ray exposure doses. To produce the PS-based composite fibers, we employed a forcespinning (FS) method. Based on optimization of the FS process, fibrous color dosimeters with a high radiation dose sensitivity of 1.2－4.4 Gy were fabricated. The color of the dosimeters was found to transition from white to blue in response to X-ray exposure. In order to realize practical applications, we manufactured the optimized fibrous color dosimeter into a clothlike color dosimeter. The clothlike color dosimeter was mounted on a stuffed bear, and its coloring behavior was demonstrated upon X-ray exposure. After exposure with X-ray, a blue colored clearly appeared on the surface of the clothlike color dosimeter. The proposed fibrous color dosimeters having excellent workability will be an unprecedented dosimetry and contributed to all industries utilizing radiation dosimeters.
