The purpose of this research is to present a complex method for the evaluation of the
shielding efficiency of concretes and mortars used in biological shields against ionizing …

In this paper, the mechanism of neutron absorption and common reinforced particles is
introduced, and recent research progress on different types of neutron-shielding materials …

For the first time, the hazardous chrysotile was valorized as an aggregate in radiation
shielding concrete (RSC). This was accomplished through its amalgamation with two …

An exclusive set of multicomponent glasses (BTPME) with composition 39B 2 O 3− 20PbO–
15TeO 2− 10P 2 O 5− 15MO–1Eu 2 O 3 (where M= BaO, CaO, SrO, Li 2 O, ZnO) have been …

The current study aims to explore the impact of lead oxide and lead phosphate on the
attenuation coefficient of concrete used as radiation shielding in nuclear facilities, the …

In this study, three different ilmenite-limonite (ILC) concretes were modeled in terms of
determining the effect of filler type and filler size on the enhancement of radiation shielding …

A system for neutron shielding performance test was designed based on an Am–Be neutron
source and 3 He proportional counter. The Am–Be neutron source was shielded by paraffin …

In this paper, the effect of Gd (Gadolinium) content on the microstructure and properties of
Gd/316L composites were systematically studied, on the basis of which the Gd/316L neutron …

Experimental work was carried out to study new fine aggregate shielding construction
materials, namely black sand (BS). The BS effect on the mechanical, durability, and …

The application of ionising radiations became necessary and valuable for various reasons,
ie, electricity generation, medical treatment, agriculture, industry and scientific research …
