Characterization of a DIPEX Coated ZnS:Ag Disk for Quantification of Actinides in Groundwater

This technology features materials and systems useful in determining the existence of radionuclides in an aqueous sample. The materials provide the dual function of both extraction and scintillation to the systems. The systems are both portable and simple to use and, as such, can beneficially be utilized to determine the presence and concentration of...
