“…Therefore, effective radiation shielding materials are critical for protecting persons who operate near the radiation sources [4][5][6]. In the few last years, due to the spread in using the radioactive sources (X-rays/γrays), the attention of scientists was attracted to developed new lead free shielding materials including cementation concretes, glasses [7][8][9][10][11], alloys [12][13][14][15], clay bricks [16][17][18][19], and polymers [20][21][22][23][24]. Due to the massive, hard, drawback, and brittle, of the aforementioned concrete, alloys, and bricks, the scientist developed many polymetric composites to overcome these aforementioned disadvantages [25,26].…”

This article explores the processing of structural and thermal for polypropylene (PP) modified with Ni0.9Zn0.1Fe2O4 nanoparticles. The PP/Ni0.9Zn0.1Fe2O4 nanocomposites are manufactured by melt processing method. The structural investigations ensure the good incorporation of Ni0.9Zn0.1Fe2O4 on the PP matrix. It is noticed that adding Ni0.9Zn0.1Fe2O4 nanoparticles to the PP polymer matrix enhances the polymer's thermal stability. Additionally, the impacts of the addition of the Ni0.9Zn0.1Fe2O4 nanoparticles on the radiation shielding properties of fabricated PP-based composites were examined using the Monte Carlo simulation. The examination shows an enhancement in the fabricated composites’ linear attenuation coefficient with increased Ni0.9Zn0.1Fe2O4 nanoparticle concentrations. The linear attenuation coefficient increased by 13.12, 3.95, 2.35, 1.55, and 1.16 times at γ-ray energy of 0.033, 0.059, 0.081, 0.122, and 0.662 MeV. Furthermore, the increase in linear attenuation coefficient increases the radiation shielding efficiency for the fabricated composites, reaching 21.84%, 27.27%, 29.03%, and 31.77%, respectively, for 0.0 wt.%, 5.0 wt.%, 10 wt.%, and 15 wt.%, at 0.122 MeV. The study shows that the fabricated composites have suitable γ-ray shielding properties in lower energy than in the intermediate energy interval.

“…The attenuation coefficient is a very significant parameter for the investigation of how radiation interacts with matter since it shows us the percentage of energy that is either absorbed or scattered. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10] Different previous works reported the attenuation coefficients for different materials such as alloys, ceramics, rocks, concrete, glasses, and glass ceramics. [11][12][13][14][15][16] Glass is one of the safest materials used for packaging due to its make-up and qualities, and it has a recycling rate of one hundred percent.…”

Several radiation shielding parameters for (75-x)B2O3-10TeO2-13SrCO3 -2ZnO-xPbO glasses were evaluated between 0.284 and 1.333 MeV. The PbO content in the glass has a positive relationship with the density of the glasses, leading to BTSZP0, the glass with no PbO, having the smallest density, while BTSZP5, which has 40 PbO mol%, has the greatest density. Radiation shielding parameters such as mass attenuation coefficients and other related factors were computed, and relationships between PbO content, energy, and density are graphed. Linear attenuation coefficient (LAC) is reported and we evaluated the impact of density on the LAC values. By adding more PbO atoms, the density of the samples increased, leading to a higher LAC. The BTSZP0 sample has the highest HVL at all tested energies, with the BTSZP5 sample having the lowest HVL. Mean free path (MFP) has an inverse relationship with the density of each sample but increases with greater incoming photon energy. The effective atomic number (Zeff) values peak at low photon energies and rise significantly with increasing PbO content. The MFP and TVL of the BTSZP glasses are compared against previously tested glass samples at a set energy, and the values demosntrated the effectiveness of the BTSZP glasses.
