Novel High Strength Economical Shielding Materials
Öz
In the present study, gamma-ray shielding
performance was investigated using mass attenuation coefficients and exposure
buildup factors for tourmaline datolite, galena, amethyst and hormirad. The
mass attenuation coefficients were also calculated using GEANT4 simulation
toolkit, compared with XCOM results, a good agreement between XCOM and GEANT4 results
was observed. The exposure buildup factors were calculated using GP fitting
method for photon energy 0.015 to 15 MeV up to 40 mfp. The hormirad is superior
shielding material among than tourmaline, datolite and amethyst whereas galena
is the best shielding materials in low photon energy except near to 100 keV. The
investigation would be very useful for shielding application of these
materials.
