Abstract

|
Positron Annihilation Lifetime Spectroscopy is a non-destructive technique to study voids and defects in solids by the measurement of gammas from electron-positron annihilation. In this study, we measured the lifetime of CR, EPDM, NBR, all of which are widely used polymer in various fields. A conventional fast-fast coincidence system in KAERI(Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute) has been used to measure the lifetime spectra, Three lifetime components were analyzed from each lifetime spectra. According to Tao-Eldrup model equation, the size and fraction of free-volume were calculated. Mean radius and free volume fraction of CR, EPDM NBR are 0.1217§¬©ø(1.9103%), 0.14780§¬©ø(5.3147%), 0.1216§¬©ø(2.6381%), respectively. Through these measurements, we identified the feasibility of the PAL system for polymer analysis.
