6 Mar 2019 | Abstract: | Deposition of $^{222}Rn$ daughters onto detector materials pose a risk to
ultra-low background experiments. To mitigate this risk, a common approach is
to enclose materials in sealed plastic bags made of films known to be an
effective barrier against radon. We describe a method to evaluate not only the
intrinsic resistance to radon penetration of different plastic films but also
the integrity of bags fabricated from these films and sealed following some
protocol. We report the results of applying this method to sealed bags
fabricated from polypropylene, Nylon, Mylar, metallized Mylar, FEP, and PFA. | Source: | arXiv, 1903.2643 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
