Abstract

Four glasses coded SBT-V, SBT-Mn, SBT-Mo, and SBT-Tl having the –composition 10SrO-35B₂O₃-35TeO₂-20 V₂O₅/MnO₂/MoO₃/Tl₂O₃ were fabricated by the melt quench technique and investigated for their mechanical and radiation shielding qualities. The SBT-Tl glass showed the highest density of 5.1024 g/cm³, while the SBT-V glass had the least density of 3.6875 g/cm³. The SBT-Tl glass exhibited elastic constants viz., Young's modulus, bulk modulus, shear modulus, and longitudinal modulus respectively of 39, 24, 16, and 45 GPa. The elastic moduli of this glass were comparable to the TeO₂-Bi₂O₃-PbO-MgO-B₂O₃ and PbO-WO₃-Na₂O-MgO-B₂O₃ glass systems examined for radiation protection application. The simulation results for radiation shielding by the MCNPX code were close to the results obtained from the XCOM database. The SBT-Tl glass among the synthesized glasses revealed the highest mass attenuation coefficient, lowest half-value layer, lowest tenth value layer, and highest effective atomic number. The results imply that the SBT-Tl glass is the best radiation attenuator in the present work.
