Usage of the polyphenylene oxide dosimeter to measure annual solar erythemal exposures.
Poly (2,6-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene oxide) (PPO) film is a useful dosimetric tool for measuring solar UV in underwater and terrestrial environments. However, little is known about how the response of PPO changes with fluctuations in atmospheric ozone and also to seasonal variations. To resolve this issue this article presents a series of long-term in-air solar erythemal response measurements made ...
متن کاملApplicability of the polyphenylene oxide film dosimeter to high UV exposures in aquatic environments.
Previous research has proven that the Poly (2,6-dimethyl-1, 4-phenylene oxide) (PPO) dosimeter is capable of receiving both in-air and underwater UV exposures that are significantly greater than those of the more commonly used polysulphone dosimeter, within a range of accuracy close to what would be expected of dosimetric measurements made in-air provided that the necessary calibrations are com...
متن کاملUtilising polyphenylene oxide for high exposure solar UVA dosimetry
A personal UV dosimeter that can quantitatively assess high exposure solar UVA exposures has been developed. The chemical polyphenylene oxide has been previously reported on its ability to measure high UVB exposures. This current research has found that polyphenylene oxide, cast in thin film form, is responsive to both the UVA and UVB parts of the solar spectrum. Further to this, the UVB wavele...
متن کاملInfluence of summer daylight saving time on scattered erythemal solar ultraviolet exposures.
The research question of whether there are any influences in the scattered or diffuse erythemal UV exposures to a horizontal plane over a five month period due to the change from standard time to daylight saving time, has been investigated by using physical measurements and applying them to both standard time and daylight saving time. The diffuse erythemal UV was considered for fixed lunch brea...
متن کاملDosimeter for measurement of UVA exposures
A prototype UVA dosimeter that is responsive to the UVA wavelengths only has been developed for measurement of personal exposures. The chemical phenothiazine, cast in thin film form and which is responsive to both the UVA (320400 nm) and UVB (280-320 nm) part of the spectrum was used and filtered with mylar. This combined system responded to the UVA wavelengths only and underwent a change in op...
