Abstract

In the last few decades, the challenges of ionizing radiation shielding have begun gaining attention of investigators in order to minimize the harmful effects of various radiations especially on workers who are interested in the outcome of a nuclear or radiological situation that requires protection. In this context, the presented chapter focuses on the shielding preparation, materials design, photon, and neutron shielding performances of polymer-based composites doped with bismuth nitrate in different weight ratios. Here, the photon attenuation behavior of the prepared composites is determined using a gamma spectrometer equipped with High Purity Germanium (HPGe) detector that covers a wide energy range varying from 0.060 to 1.408 meV. Besides, the obtained experimental data are further compared with the results of theoretical (WinXCOM software) and Monte Carlo simulation (GEANT4). In addition, the fast neutron mass removal cross sections and the numbers of transmitted neutrons at different thickness and neutron energies are estimated with the use of GEANT4 simulations by coding the elemental compositions of the fabricated composites. The results showed that the gamma attenuation was improved with the increase of BiNO dopant amount. Among the prepared samples, the sample with 20% BiNO concentration was found to be the best radiation shielding material. In addition to being used for the ionizing radiation shielding, such polyester composites can also be used as shielding absorbers for the low-energy ionizing radiation. In short, it is expected that the researchers and scientists in the fields of nuclear and medical physics will benefit from this chapter.
