Bicron BC408 Plastic Scintillator 10x10x1 cm Detector Project (1 Face Polished)

Description

1 Piece 10cmX10cmX1cm cut BC408 Scintillator Block with one face polished
Bicron BC408 Plastic Scintillator block with peak emission at about 425nm, custom cut. These blocks are cut approximately 10cm x 10cm x 1cm and come with one face polished.
Polishing the other face and four sides can be achieved if needed by using progressively finer grades of wet sandpaper and plastic polish. I include
instructions
for additional
polishing with the scintillators.
Dimensions
(approximate)
Faces = ~10cm X ~10cm
Sides = ~1cm
This listing is for one precut block of Bicron BC408 Scintillator Plastic.
This material is a Premium Plastic Scintillator Material, tested and guaranteed to work. No other items shown or mentioned are included.

Please don’t forget to check my other listings, as I carry many different diameters and lengths
that fit right on popular sized PMTs often used in scintillation detectors or available for purchase separately. I also custom cut and polish to request, please inquire if you have needs for a custom size or finish.
These are virgin "water cooled cut and polished" scintillator blocks. I never use or recommend heat polishing of a scintillator. Cutting and polishing of scintillator plastic can be difficult and costly without proper know-how and equipment. Unless you’re going to build dozens of detectors, buying precut scintillators from me is much cheaper (and easier) than trying to cut, shape and polish it yourself.

Attention school teachers, professors, and students. These are excellent for Science Fair and physics projects, experiments and term or research papers. Scintillator detectors are fun and easy to build for all age groups from high school through college and university. Great experience and fun for the electronic hobbyist as well.
