Abstract :
In order to improve the performance of a newly developed radiochromic film, GIC-79, some
dosimetric characteristics of this film have been studied based on relevant standard practice. The present
study describes some parameters that may affect the dosimeter response before, during, and after irradiation.
The effect of absorbed dose rate on dosimeter response was determined by irradiating dosimeters at low
absorbed dose rates with gamma rays. Calibration irradiations of dosimeters were performed with both
gamma rays and also electrons to determine the effect of large difference absorbed dose rates on dosimeter
response. In addition, post irradiation stability was obtained and also the temperature and humidity effects on
the dosimeter response during the storage time prior to irradiation and post irradiation have been investigated.
