In the present work eight types of ceramic materials have been used as a shielding material and tested against gamma ray each type of ceramic modified as glazed and unglazed.
Ceramic radiation shielding material.
American ceramic technology inc.
The radiation sources 137cs and 60co were used to calculate attenuation.
As we experienced difficulties during the reconstruction of the concrete shielding wall of the linac room brick type of shielding material which can be fast assembled in situ with a flexibility to be shaped any form was expected to replace.
Radiation shielding materials are used for a variety of radiologic applications.
Therefore it is common to design multiple layers of shielding structures.
This is a long list of properties for one material.
The use of radiation in diagnosing and treating patients has significantly advanced the field of medicine and saved or extended countless lives advances in technology and more sophisticated applications have improved standard treatments for the benefit of the patient.
Glasses have many advantages such as high optical transparency ease of preparation in different ways ease in formatting and low cost 6 7 8.

Radiation shielding is imperative as radiation can be a serious concern in nuclear power facilities industrial or medical x ray systems radioisotope projects particle accelerator work and a number of other circumstances.
These materials have good radiation shielding factors but have many problems such as being opaque to visible light and only be suited to limited numbers of applications.
In 2005 silflex tungsten shielding was developed and certified by entergy and ano in 2007 for use in the nuclear industry.
With one or more suitably prepared and distributed radiation shielding materials dispersed in the cold fired chemically bonded oxide phosphate ceramic cement matrix.
One of these ways is shielding.
Is the iso 9001 2015 manufacturer of silflex shielding the award winning nonhazardous non lead radiation shielding.
In the last decade or so ceramic composite materials have increasingly been proposed as a desirable reactor material both inside and outside the core.
