摘      要：The effects of 60 Co gamma radiation on the strength-related mechanical properties of a borosilicate glass were examined. Although the glass darkened considerably, only a very slight densification was observed after irradiation to levels of 10 8 rads. The strength distributions were not appreciably changed by the irradiation, nor was the calculated slow crack growth parameter, or N value. Neither did radiation affect the elastic modulus or the fracture toughness of the glass. Gamma radiation does not affect the strength below 10 8 rads.
