摘要
Polyethylene (PE) was irradiated with 63 keV Ar+ and 155 keV Xe+ ions to fluences of 1 x 10(13) to 3 x 10(15) cm(-2) with ion energies being chosen in order to achieve approximately the same penetration depth for both species. The PE surface morphology was examined by means of atomic force microscopy (AFM), whereas the concentration of free radicals and conjugated double bonds, both created by the ion irradiation, were determined using electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and UV-VIS spectroscopy, respectively. As expected, the degradation of PE was higher after irradiation with heavier Xe+ ions but the changes in the PE surface morphology were more pronounced for Ar+ ions. This newly observed effect can be explained by stronger compaction of the PE surface layer in the case of the Xe+ irradiation, connected with a reduction of free volume available.
