The results show that the surface shape and microstructure were not spoiled under 50 kGy gamma irradiation, while the crystallization of Apocynum fiber changed under 280 kGy . It also shows that different free radicals appear after irradiation and their concentration increases with the increase of irradiation dose.展开更多
