Data confidence 70 medium

How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Asymmetric track-etched membranes based on polyethylene terephthalate have been prepared using two-sided irradiation on the heavy-ion accelerator DC-60. A process for cyclotron adjustment to bombardment of a polymer material has been described. A procedure for preparing asymmetric track-etched membranes with different pore lengths and sizes has been specified. The strength characteristics of the resulting membrane have been evaluated. It has been shown that the membrane can be used in processes in which the driving force is hydraulic or osmotic pressure.
