    Abstract:

    The irradiation of polymeric materials with SHI results in a change of their free volume properties which have strong correlation with their macroscopic properties. Positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy (PALS) has been developed into a powerful characterization tool for the study of free volume and free volume fraction in polymers. We have used different type of polymers with different thickness and irradiated with different ions of energy and flunces from 15 UD Pelletron accelerators at Inter University Accelerator Centre (IUAC), New Delhi, India. Characterizations of the effect of ion irradiation on free volume have been done by PALS and other techniques like XRD, AFM, UV-Vis, FTIR, SEM etc. The average free volume and fractional free volume obtained from long lived component, attributed to ortho-positronium (o-Ps) lifetime, are found to decrease with the fluence in both the cases. With increasing fluence, scissioned segments cross-link randomly, resulting in a decrease of average free volume due to overlapping of tracks [1-5]. The detailed results will be discussed during the presentation.
