Abstract
The induced changes in the electrical resistance by γ-irradiation was measured for some cellulose-polymer composites. Increasing the percentage of the polymer in the composite samples results in an increase of the activation energy. When the polymer is replaced by another, the activation energy changes accordingly. The addition of glass to the composite gives rise to lower activation energy. Still further decrease is achieved if glass is replaced by cupric oxide. The results obtained show that the resistance was changed to a lower value by γ-irradiation. This may allow such composites be used as γ-dosimeters in the kilorad range.
