摘要: Ultraviolet-transparent polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) and cellulose (III) acetate (CA) (often used as a cut-off filter in UVB [280-320 nm] biological effect studies) were exposed to 20 W Philips TL 12 lamp examine changes transmission characteristics due exposure. Transmission of biologically weighted (UVBBE(DNA)) through PMMA similar, 88.3 83.5%, respectively. The absorption did not change with time at any the UV irradiance levels applied. However, UVBBE(DNA) new CA differed considerably: 59% versus only 11%, Also, spectral changed degradation CA, rate that was dependent on incident irradiance. decrease both can be described by exponential functions. wrapped around showed dramatic over first few hours use. when placed longer distance from light source initial less. It is concluded applied studies reasonable alternative for quartz. should, however, care, because large decreases observed strongly hamper an accurate calculation (biologically weighted) dose rates.
