Abstract
Significant changes in infrared absorption spectra of polystyrene upon the addition of cesium sulfate nanoparticles to it are observed, which is due to two variants of attachment of organic molecules to nanoparticles (through hydrogen and pi bonds). The relation between the bonds changes significantly during deformation of polystyrene/cesium sulfate composite owing to differences in the mechanical strength thereof. In its turn, the differences in atomic and electronic bond structures result in a significant differentiation of their influence on light emission processes, making it possible to control the scintillation characteristics of polystyrene/nanoparticle composites via regulating their composition and morphology.
