    About PERMAGLAS

    • Permaglas ME730 by RESARM Engineering Plastics SA

    ▪ Epoxy glass fibre material, amorphous, machinable

    ▪ The plate planarity is obtained by machining Purchased by us:

  • GAS DETECTORS

    THICKNESS UNIFORMITY

    • Raw material characterization

    • Nominal thickness 0.7 mm ▪ /Δ/ < 4%; σ < 2%

    • Nominal thickness 1 mm ▪ /Δ/ < 2%; σ < 1%

    à Very good thickness uniformity!

    RESULTS

    • UNIFORMITY SCAN: ▪ σ: 13%

    • ENERGY RESOLUTION: ▪ 20 %

    • GAIN PERFORMANCE: ▪ A robust device

    CONCLUSIONS about PERMAGLAS THGEM

    • Robust material with good uniformity performance

    • Difficult to get good quality thin foils

    • Limited gain dependence on rate (charging up) and time (ion displacement in the bulk dielectric)
