Properties of radiothermoluminescence of polyethylene-fibroin composite

In the given work, results of research of radiothermoluminescense (RTL) and electret properties of HDPE and composites on its basis containing a polar organic additive distributed in the volume of natural silk fibroin up to 50% are presented. It is established that changes in the molecular structure of HDPE by introduction of natural silk fibroin into it and radiation modification are shown in changes in RTL spectra. Complex research of RTL and electret properties of HDPE + fibroin composites has shown that, by studying RTL spectra of composites, it is possible to predict formation of high electret states in them.
