Neutron-scattering methods for researching condensed matter allow obtaining information about the inner structure and dynamics of the sample under study. The creation of new high-fluxes neutron sources for studying of promising materials and various biological systems impose special requirements on the operating parameters of detector systems. New generation of thermal neutron detectors should have record-breaking characteristics in spatial and time resolution with high registration efficiency. The paper discusses the possibility of using and expected performance characteristics of 10B-RPC for thermal neutron detection as part of searching new solutions for the implementation of neutron scattering station detector systems.
