The project established a system for routine measurement of electron dose and brought about a complete experimental approach for high-dose dosimetry. The paper reports some general properties of domestic radiochromic pararosaniline cyanide (PR-CN) dye with polyvinyl butyral (PVB)-based film used for measuring electron dose. The optical absorption spectrum, the change in optical density as a function of thickness, distribution of the background optical density and spread of response, long-term stability, linear relationship between the change in optical density per unit thickness and absorbed dose, the minimum detectable limit, effect of environmental factors on background and response after irradiation, effect of light-exposition and the time of establishing complete response have been experimentally investigated.
