Fig. 1: UV absorbance of EVA/EVOH/EVA films.

a UV absorbance of an unirradiated film compared to the maximum irradiation, i.e., 100 kGy under X-ray, in the full wavelength range. b UV absorbance in 260–340 nm wavelength of films irradiated at different doses and technologies. c UV absorbance at 276 nm as a function of actual delivered doses. On each box, the cross indicates the sample mean, the central line is the median, the bottom and top bounds of the box represent the 25th and 75th percentiles, and the whiskers extend to the extreme values which are within 1.5 times the interquartile range away from the box bounds.
