This paper presents results on investigation of characteristics of plastic scintillators that contain carboxylates of aliphatic-aromatic acid with different neutral ligands as Gd-containing compounds. The peculiarities of these compounds synthesis were shown. The compounds thermal stability and solubility in styrene were investigated. Optimal conditions for Gd-containing polystyrene-based scintillators obtaining were developed.
