摘要

Electronic materials are used everywhere and can get easily contaminated by their use in the field/laboratory. The goal of this project was to use radioactive material to track the effectiveness of a cleaning procedure using an off-the-shelf cleaning gel. Radioactive potassium bromide (KBr) was used as a model contaminant in four contamination scenarios to gauge the effectiveness of a cleaning gel in the decontamination of contaminated raspberry pi’s. The investigated decontamination technique was found to be 75–97% effective in removing contamination from the tested electronic devices. 95% of the contaminated electronic devices retained their functionality post-decontamination.
