Excellent- More about Gamma Irradiation: Properties, Effects and Development of New Materials
Gamma radiation is a form of electromagnetic radiation that arises from the radioactive decay of atomic nuclei. It has practical applications in medical devices, food industry, nuclear power plants, and plant breeding. It can damage the human body but also has benefits. Radiation is used to induce mutations in modern plant breeding, analyze the effects of gamma irradiation on carbon-based nanomaterials, and produce novel polymer composites.

Gamma radiation, a form of electromagnetic radiation, emerges from the radioactive decay of atomic nuclei. It possesses the highest photon energy and can cause harm to the human body. However, it also finds numerous practical applications.
Chapter One delves into the utilization of gamma radiation in the sterilization of medical devices, the food industry, nuclear power plants, and its behavior, properties, and other applications. Chapter Two explores the effects of gamma radiation, the latest research on the alterations induced by gamma radiation, and the significance of dosimetry in understanding gamma radiation. Chapter Three discusses the use of radiation for inducing mutations in modern plant breeding. Chapter Four analyzes the impact of gamma irradiation on various carbon-based nanomaterials. Lastly, Chapter Five addresses the importance of employing polylactic acid and gamma radiation in the production of novel polymer composites, which enhance their sustainability and environmental aspects.
