New composite material based on heavy concrete reinforced by basalt-boron fiber for radioactive waste management

A new composite material with neutron radiation shielding properties is presented. This fiber reinforced concrete material incorporates basalt-boron fiber, with different concentrations of boron oxide in fiber, and is applicable to nuclear energy and nuclear waste management. The methodology for pro...
