An Investigation on Radiation Shielding Properties of Borosilicate Glass Systems

The aim of this research is to examine the radiation shielding properties 5B2O3-40SiO2-(55-x)Al2O3-xBaO (BSABa-x) glass systems, which are containing barium and aluminum oxide added borosilicate glasses, with varying from 25 34 weight fractions. Shielding parameters, such as linear attenuation coefficients (LAC), mass (MAC), mean free path (MFP), effective atomic number (Zeff), electron density (Neff), half-value layer (HVL), tenth-value (TVL), (Aeff), exposure buildup factors (EBF) energy absorption (EABF) enable us obtain information about power composite material groups. Therefore, for 0.015–15 MeV gamma-ray energies obtained by using Py-MLBUF online software determine photon parameters BSABa-x glasses. results shown that contains higher BaO concentration has coefficients. BSABa-34 highest MACs, ranging 0.111 cm2/g 90.400 cm2/g, while BSABa-25 lowest values, 0.099 69.000 cm2/g. contribution thinnest MFP HVL values. In addition, minimized adding Accordingly, we can conclude glasses at increasing rates, improves nuclear resistance properties.
