The purpose of the invention is to provide a resin for a scintillator having high sensitivity to radiation without using a wavelength shifter. The invention is a resin for a radiation detector scintillator comprising polyester having units represented by formula (1). (1) (In formula (1), Ar is a naphthalenediyl group or anthracenediyl group, and these are optionally substituted by a C1-6 alkyl group or halogen atom. X is a C2-20 aliphatic hydrocarbon group, C2-20 alicyclic hydrocarbon group, or C5-20 aromatic group, and these are optionally substituted by a C1-6 alkyl group or halogen atom.)
