Iron (III) Oxide-Based Ceramic Material for Radiation Shielding
We developed a new ceramic from raw material mainly composed of iron (III) oxide. The measured attenuation coefficient of the ceramic for high-energy gamma rays was in the range 0.268–0.355, which is approximately 40% of that of lead and twice that of concrete. The measured penetrating dose of the c...
