Abstract
The aim of this research is to set up a portable fast neutron radiography (FNR) system and to test it for use in non destructive testing of different composite materials. FNR systems provide distinctive advantages in non-destructive evaluation of thick composite materials. Other traditional techniques, such as X-ray, gamma ray and thermal neutron radiography do not meet FNRs capabilities in this area. The FNR images are produced directly during exposure; the neutrons create recoil protons, the protons activate a scintillator screen, the images can be collected with computer controlled CCD camera and the final picture can be saved on computer for the image processing. Experiments were carried out by using fast portative neutron generator Thermo Fischer MP320 at Çekmece Nuclear Research and Training Centre.
