Abstract :
The influence of various components of a plastic scintillator (high concentrations of primary dopant, secondary fluor, diffusion enhancer and stabilizer) on its radiation hardness has been experimentally determined. The diffusion enhancing technique was shown to be the most powerful tool for improving radiation hardness. A new polystyrene scintillator that decreases its light output by only 4% after 2.8 Mrad irradiation has been produced.
