Abstract

As part of an ongoing research programme to investigate how medical X-ray computed tomography (CT) can be used in non-destructive testing of polymeric materials, a series of peroxide cured, non-filled polyisoprene rubbers with different crosslink densities were investigated. It was found that a normal medical X-ray CT scanner, thanks to its excellent contrast resolution, is capable of detecting density variations, caused by crosslinking, which exceed 2–3 mg cm −3.
