Monte Carlo Simulations and Phy-X/PSD Study of Radiation Shielding and Elastic Effects of Molybdenum and Tungsten in Phosphate Glasses

Journal of Materials Research and Technology, 2022
The mechanical and shielding characteristics of (100 − x)% NaPO3−x% MoO3 (where x = 20,40,60) and (100-x)% NaPO3-x% WO3 (where x = 20,40,60) glass systems were studied to evaluate their ability to act as shielding materials. Using the Makishima-Mackenzie theory, the mechanical parameters of all glass samples and their dependence on the MoO3 content ...
