  • Abstract
    Backscatter systems are very good in imaging organic material. Ceramic was chosen to be studied to see whether true or not the backscatter systems not good for inorganic materials. Ceramics are used in the manufacture of knives. The blade of a ceramic knife will stay sharp for much longer than that of a steel knife, although it is more brittle and can be snapped by dropping it on a hard surface. Only backscatter system that can detect the ceramic very well. In this study, the ratio of dose rate on ceramic and on free air was taken with different factors. The results give a pattern which shows that ceramic BSF having the same patent with the organic materials. The detection of dose rate on ceramic are easy to get and the reading give no doubt. The BSF information of ceramic can be used by others in developing the application of BSF system or the ceramic.
