To use these detectors in the optimal way and to determine their detection characteristics, detailed calibration studies of the selected plastic detectors, and especially CR-39 and PM-355 types have been performed at IPJ for several years. The paper presents detection characteristics, i.e. track diameters as a function of ion energy, atomic number and etching time. There are also presented in the paper different applications of the detectors in question, particulary in the Plasma Focus experiments.
