Abstract:
Optical and chemical stability studies were performed for a Gd-doped liquid scintillator synthesized for using in a prototype of industrial reactor antineutrino detector iDREAM. It is shown that the scintillator solution 1.1 m$^3$ in volume remains stable for two years of observations provided the temperature is kept below $\sim$20$^\circ$C and contact with air is prevented.
Keywords:
neutrino detector, liquid scintillator, reactor antineutrino.
