Abstract
The interaction of radiation with matteris a very complex process that covers a broad area of different phenomena taking place. Upon irradiation, energy is transferred to material medium and many radiation-induced defects are produced along the path of penetrating radiation. The irradiation induced effects causes to the change the physical and chemical properties of irradiated materials. The energy transfer mechanism varies from charged to neutral particles to electromagnetic (EM) radiation; even fundamental particles such as electrons, protons, or neutrons. Therefore, to understand the substantial effects of irradiation with polymers, understanding the true mechanism behind the bench is of vital importance. Thus, the present article is subject to review the effect of different irradiation on polymer-based nanocomposites. These days, polymers are a subject of vital importance in biomedical applications from drug delivery, to artificial joint/muscle, wound dressing, soft contact lens, etc. Radiation processing is also considered important for the production of shielding systems, sensors, sterilization, etc. that are also indirectly linked to medical science. Moreover, irradiation-induced cross-linking of polymers rolls over the application of polymers in biomedical applications. The major areas under discussion are laid upon the mechanism and fundamentals of particular radiation and polymer interactions than the method to biomedical applications.
