Using films loaded with optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) crystals have been studied in order to overcome some of these challenges in 2D dosimetry. In this work, we investigated flexible polymeric films loaded with MgB4O7:Ce,Li to acquire a better understanding of the dependence of the dosimetric signal characteristics on the production process and the influence of using different powder grain sizes. In film production, five different solvents were used: acetone\u2013benzene, dichloromethane, chloroform, tetrahydrofuran and formic acid. Our results indicate that acetone\u2013benzene is the solvent mixture that less influences the signal emitted by treated crystals, in comparison with the signal emitted by the pristine crystal powder. Conversely, by using formic acid, the crystalline structure of the sample was most severely modified, leading to a drastic reduction of the emitted OSL signal. We found that the extent of the grain surface in contact with the solvent in the process is important and should be taken into consideration when choosing the proper grain size to be used.<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>Highlights \u00a0Polymeric films loaded with MgB4O7:Ce,Li crystals were produced using different solvents.Different effect on the OSL signal was found depending on the used solvent.Among the evaluated solvents, acetone\u2013benzene was the one that less affected the OSL signal.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/rpd\/ncac161","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,7,21]],"date-time":"2022-07-21T21:20:35Z","timestamp":1658438435000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Effect of Different Solvents on the Optically Stimulated Luminescence Signal from MgB4O7:Ce,Li-Loaded Polymer Films"],"prefix":"10.1093","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8158-8453","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Caroline C","family":"Santos","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Physics Department, Federal University of Sergipe (DFI\/UFS) , S\u00e3o Crist\u00f3v\u00e3o, SE , Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9091-6925","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jo\u00e3o V B","family":"Valen\u00e7a","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"DECESA, Federal University of Health Sciences of Porto Alegre (UFCSPA) , Porto Alegre, RS , Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Francesco","family":"d\u2019Errico","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Scuola di Ingegneria, Universit\u00e0 di Pisa (UNIPI) , Pisa , Italy"},{"name":"School of Medicine, Yale University (YALE) , New Haven, CT USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Rog\u00e9rio","family":"Machado","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Physics Department, Federal University of Sergipe (DFI\/UFS) , S\u00e3o Crist\u00f3v\u00e3o, SE , Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Linda V E","family":"Caldas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Nuclear and Energy Research Institute (IPEN) , S\u00e3o Paulo, SP , Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Susana O","family":"Souza","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Physics Department, Federal University of Sergipe (DFI\/UFS) , S\u00e3o Crist\u00f3v\u00e3o, SE , Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,7,22]]},"reference":[{"key":"2022072121194765700_ref1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"644","DOI":"10.1016\/j.radmeas.2017.07.006","article-title":"OSL films for in-vivo entrance dose measurements","volume":"106","author":"Souza","year":"2017","journal-title":"Radiat.
