Abstract

In this study, the glass system of xSiO2-20B2O3-10Na2O-4MgO-8CaO-3Al2O3-(55-x)ZnO where x= 0, 5, 10, 15, 20 and 25 wt.% were investigated via the WinXCom program. Radiation shielding characteristics of linear attenuation coefficient (LAC), mass attenuation coefficient (MAC), half-value layer (HVL) and mean free path (MFP) parameters of 6 different glass systems were calculated in the energy range of 0.015-10 MeV. Further, a comparison for HVL values between heavy-weight concrete materials & commercial glasses and our findings was carried out. Furthermore, some important glass property calculations and viscosity-temperature curves were calculated with BatchMaker software. According to the WinXCom calculations, it was found out that LAC and MAC values increased while HVL and MFP values decreased with increasing ZnO content. Particularly, 25 wt.% of ZnO (sample-5) addition ensured to obtain by far the best radiation shielding characteristics at higher photon energies. As a result of the comparison, it was strikingly seen that our glass samples have promising results when compared with heavyweight concrete materials and commercial products. Interestingly, sample-5 can compete even with RS323 G18 (33 wt% PbO content) in higher photon energies despite its low-density value. Moreover, it was determined that our glass systems were found to have glass formation ability with satisfactory glass properties according to BatchMaker estimate calculations.
