Abstract
A gadolinium (Gd) complex with carboxylic acid was synthesized by using a neutralization chemical reaction. Gd (0.5%) was doped into a liquid scintillator by using a solvent-solvent extraction under controlled pH. Linear alkyl benzene (LAB) was used as a scintillation solvent. We measured several important physical and optical properties. The preparation, the synthesis procedures and the characterization of the resulting gadolinium-loaded, LAB-based, liquid scintillator are described in this paper.
