“…The scintillation characteristics of a PS deteriorate under exposure to high doses of α-, β, and γ-rays and high intensities of light [52]. This results from irreversible damage to the polymer base, the formation of unstable radiolysis products (excited molecules, cations, anions, trapped electrons, and free radicals, which are stabilized in the rigid polymer matrix and quench the radioluminescence of scintillators [53]), and the degradation of the luminescent dyes. PMMA contains no groups capable of dissipating the energy absorbed in it; it is therefore actively destroyed under irradiation with high-energy particles (Table 3).…”

“…Nevertheless, it conveys reactivity onto the treated surface via plasma species, electrons, ions, and UV-radiation. In fact, inert gas plasma treatment is used in periods typically from 1s to several minutes, and this exposure is enough to abstract hydrogen and to produce free radicals at or near the surface which then interact to form cross-links and unsaturated groups; notwithstanding, these chemical and physical changes are restricted to the top several hundred angstroms without affecting bulk properties [ 8 , 9 ].…”

“…The bonding strength of specimens with an interface area of 1 mm 2 ranged from 40 to 60 MPa. When the interface area was increased to 2 mm 2 , the bonding strength decreased to [15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30] MPa. This is probably a result of the presence of a greater number of defects in specimens with a large bonding surface area (10).…”
