G-PAEK 1200G (Unfilled natural PEK polymer) has been tested for 200
Mrad Gamma ray radiation exposure at BRIT (Board of Radiations and
Isotopes Technology), Navi Mumbai. The exposed samples have been tested
for Tensile Strength, Flexural strength & Elongation at Break properties with
very little change. The tables shows that there is virtually no change in
Tensile., Flexural strength & Impact Strength properties w.r.t Gamma ray
Radiation exposure dosage, upto atleast 200 Mrads. (Table 2,3 & 4)
