SP123 Plastic Scintillators

SP123 plastic scintillators are specifically designed for high-efficiency alpha-ray detection. Unlike standard plastic scintillators, the SP123 utilizes a polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) substrate coated with a precisely controlled layer of silver-activated zinc sulfide, ZnS(Ag), which acts as the primary scintillating material. Typically, the ZnS(Ag) layer is applied at a density of 4.5 mg/cm², while the supporting PMMA substrate ranges from 0.1 mm to 10 mm in thickness.A significant advantage of the SP123 is its scalability; it can be manufactured in exceptionally large-area formats, with dimensions reaching up to 1000 x 1000 mm. At Atr Crystal, we employ advanced spraying technology to apply the ZnS(Ag) coating, ensuring outstanding surface homogeneity and optical uniformity across the entire detector. We proudly supply custom SP123 plastic scintillators in various specifications precisely tailored to your application requirements.
