RADIATION CURED RADIOGRAPHIC INTENSIFYING SCREEN

摘要

The present invention describes a method for the manufacture of a phosphor intensifying screen which eliminates the use of solvents and high processing temperatures. The method comprises blending a phosphor in a hardenable system (i.e., that is, as defined herein, a polymerizable or curable system) comprising phosphor in a radiation curable binder composition, coating the phosphor in a radiation curable binder composition onto a substrate, and polymerizing (i.e., hardening) the system by exposure to actinic radiation. The radiation curable binder composition comprises an organopolysiloxane or a mixture of organopolysiloxanes.
