Abstract
        The photoluminescent properties of CdS nanoparticles based on polypropylene (PP) in wavelength interval λ= 300-750 nm 
have been studied. The atomic-force microscope (AFM) scanning revealed that various dose γ-radiation treatment of 
polymeric powder in the air influences the nanoparticles concentration in polymer matrix and increase the intensity of 
photoluminescence peak of nanocomposite. It is owing to formation of oxidative centers in polymers, which play the role of 
nucleation centers for CdS.
