Evaluating the effects of metallic waste on the structural and gamma-ray shielding properties of epoxy composites

HIGHLIGHTS

  • What: The aim of this study is to develop novel, lower-density composite materials that can block lowand intermediate-energy gamma rays. Polymeric materials are unsuitable for shielding the high-energy γ-photons, which is the main reason for selecting the energy interval between 15 and 662 keV. The HVL is inversely proportional to the LAC, which is the main reason for the decrease in the HVL with increasing metallic waste concentration, as shown in Figure 8. This study investigated how heavy metallic wastes affect the γ-ray shielding properties of epoxy resin.
