Gamma Ray and FTIR Studies in Zinc Doped Lead Borate Glasses for Radiation Shielding Application

Gamma Ray and FTIR Studies in Zinc Doped Lead Borate Glasses for Radiation Shielding Application

Gamma ray shielding properties of borate glass samples containing oxides of lead and zinc are prepared by melt and quench technique and evaluated theoretically using XCOM computer software for gamma ray shielding properties. However, gamma ray shielding properties are discussed in terms of various calculated parameters such as half value layer, mean free path and mass attenuation coefficient. The calculated parameters are compared by the author with conventional shielding material concrete. FTIR studies are undertaken to investigate the various structural groups present in the prepared system. Furthermore, it was observed that the glass sample S1 posses minimum HVL value and maximum mass attenuation coefficient, It has been inferred that addition of lead improve the gamma ray shielding properties and simultaneously decrease the rigidity of the glass systems due to formation of non bridging oxygen. Gamma ray shielding properties of our glass systems have been compared with standard nuclear radiation shielding concrete.
