Dosimetric evaluation is indicated for material characterization seeking to identify possible applications; still, proper preprocessing techniques are critical features of this process. This work aimed to determine the linearity response of plastic samples irradiated with gamma rays using the Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) measurements. The plastic samples were analyzed using Derivatives and Principal Component Analysis (PCA) methods. They applied linear and Principal Component Regression (PCR) methods to obtain linearity. The methods obtained good results for linearity and also showed the evolution of each technique. In conclusion, the results indicate that the applied methods can be useful in radiation physics and for plastic samples as interesting potential radiation detectors.

“…Since past few decades, the field of materials have been dominated by polymers and their composites due to the inherent special properties, such as being light in weight, corrosion resistant, easily pigmented and so on [1][2][3][4]. Many of the metallic products have been increasingly replaced by a class of polymeric materials that are well-known to researchers till date [5,6]. The distinct intrigue manufacturing techniques to mold these materials dynamically include blow molding, injection molding, thermoforming, rotational molding, etc.…”

Rotational molding is an idiosyncratic plastic manufacturing technique that provides a comparatively stress free end product. The base resin extensively preferred for rotomolding is Linear Low Density Polyethylene (LLDPE). However, when compared to common engineering materials, pure LLDPE embarks poor mechanical properties targeting few critical applications. Usage of glass fibres as an additive is well known to the researchers in such criteria. But its industrially processed dust is yet to be investigated for rotational molding process. Thus, in the current context, rotationally molded LLDPE based products are investigated wherein glass fibres dust (GFD) are embedded into thermoplastic resin to examine the variation in strength and stiffness of end product. According to preliminary processing tests conducted, approximately 20% and below of LLPDE/GFD composites was observed to provide better fluidity as a prerequisite for rotomoldability. Hence, an experimental study was performed to benchmark the presence of 10%, 15%, 20% and 25% GFD when mixed with LLDPE for rotomolded product. When treating LLDPE/GFD at distinct weight ratio, the rate of heat transfer was also evaluated using the mold, oven, and internal air temperature. The composite's crystallinity was investigated using DSC analysis to assess the concentration of GFD incorporated in LLDPE. Scanning electron microscopy was furthermore utilized to display the underlying mechanisms of LLDPE/GFD ratios. The present work successfully signifies an increase in an overall performance due to the impact of GFD over unreinforced LLDPE. Therefore, it is hypothesized that till 20% GFD addition in the LLDPE matrix is expected to lead a rise in mechanical properties, thus potentially approaching towards retaining the requisite degree of design freedom of rotational molding process.
