I would start by defining that size as your mother volume. You can add on a daughter volume if you need a specific 100 mm region to be replaced with air.

2.4 <= r(mm) < 3.2 and within that daughter, you define a daughter cylinder of water with a radius of 0 <= r(mm) < 1.6. The remaining volume between 1.6 <= r(mm) < 2.4 will remain as polyethylene (i.e. there’s no need to redefine a daughter of polyethylene
with those dimensions). Try to use that approach when defining your nested phantoms.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
