In this study, a series of Bi 2 O 3 reinforced bariumtelluroborate (TBX) glasses with the
nominal composition 20TeO 2+(50-x) B 2 O 3+ 29.5 BaO+ xBi 2 O 3+ 0.5 Er 2 O 3 (where x …

Minerals such as ilmenite and magnetite better absorb gamma rays compared with silica
aggregates because of their elevated densities. However, utilizing such minerals as key …

This research aims to study the effect of replacing up to 100% of recycled coarse aggregates
with heavyweight aggregates. In addition to the effect of adding heavyweight aggregate slag …

The aim of this work is to study the radiation shielding properties of size dependent bismuth
in sodium calcium borosilicate glasses. The Bi 2 O 3 in these glasses have the particle size …

The gamma rays shielding parameters for heavy metal oxide glasses and concrete samples
are comparable. However, the transparent nature of glasses provides additional feature to …

This work is an attempt to employ the glass to develop an alternative and environmentally
friendly material for gamma-radiation protection applications. For this purpose, different …

In this study, linear attenuation coefficients of concretes containing different rates of basalt-
magnetite aggregates were measured for gamma energies of 511, 662, 835, 1173, 1275 …

Ionizing radiations are hazardous in the long run if exposed to a limit higher than the
permissible limit (20 mSv/year). It can cause serious health issues like cancer, cardiac …
