%X Small Angle Neutron Scattering (SANS) technique uses cold or thermal neutrons for investigation of soft and condensed matter. Significant developments in microelectronics enabled scintillation-based pixelated neutron detectors that use Silicon Photomultipliers (SiPM) for detecting the visible light generated within a scintillator. We characterized three different SiPM technologies in terms of their radiation hardness. The results of this first study are presented together with the first preliminary characterization results obtained in a beam of cold neutrons of a demonstrator consisting of a 1 mm thick Ce doped 6Li-glass optically coupled to an 8 × 8 pixel Philips DPC module.
