X-ray Visualization and Quantification Using Fibrous Color Dosimeter Based on Leuco Dye

A polystyrene (PS)-based fibrous color dosimeter, comprising a color former based on 2-(phenylamino)-6-(dipentylamino)-3-methylspiro[9<i>H</i>-xanthene-9,3′-phthalide] (Black305) fluoran leuco dye and a 2-(4-methoxystyryl)-4,6-bis(trichloromethyl)-1,3,5-triazine (MBTT) photoacid generato...
