Physical processes of fast electron and gamma-radiation beam interaction with radiation protection ferric oxide composite materials are investigated together with dependences of energy (flux) accumulation and transmission coefficients on the gamma-radiation energy and thickness of a protective screen. Integral characteristics of radiation protection materials are calculated.
