Description
Finding eco-friendly replacement for CF4 while preserving performance and long-term operation of gas discharge detectors is of the high environmental and economic importance. Tetrafluoropropene (C3H2F4) with the trade name HFO1234ze appeared as promising candidate with low GWP. Using gas mixture of 40% Ar, 58% CO2 and 2% HFO1234ze, longevity tests were performed with β-source 90Sr and accumulated charge 1.2 C cm–1. Deterioration of the electrode surfaces was studied using scanning electron and atomic force microscopy techniques. Structural and elemental chemical analysis of deposit formed on the electrodes was analyzed using X-ray diffraction, vibrational and energy dispersive spectroscopy.
