Examining the Diffuse Reflectance Spectra and the Radiation Stability for the Mixtures of BaSO4 Micropowders and SiO2 Nanopowders with Various Specific Surface Area

Article Preview

Abstract:

The paper is devoted to studying the effect of the specific surface area (SSA) of SiO2 nanopowders (3 wt.%) added to BaSO4 powders of a micron size on grain size distribution and diffuse reflectance spectra (ρλ) within the UV, visible, and near IR regions. Additionally, the authors have examined the spectra alteration (Δρλ) after irradiating with electrons (E=30 KeV). It has been established that mere mixing of the powders at a low concentration of nanoparticles leads to the post-irradiation decrease in the reflective power and to the subsequent increase in the reflectance coefficient stability.
