This work aimed to investigate the impact of Lead-fluoride based glasses via theoretical and simulation techniques on mechanical and radiation shielding parameters. Accordingly, a glass composition PbF2 blended with TeO2-B2O3-Bi2O3 glasses were synthesised by using melt-quenching method. Using Fluka Monte Carlo code, the radiation shielding properties have measured. Moreover. Comparatively higher density PbF80= 6.163g/cm3 with 80 mol % Bi2O3, greater µ, µm and Zeff and lower T1/2, l, tenth value layer values achieved for TeO2-B2O3-Bi2O3/PbF2 glass pointed it out as the best shield of gamma. Besides, the computed effective removal cross-sections against fast neutrons (ΣR) observed that the PbF80 sample has commensurately greater with value 5.2954 (cm-1) The results observed that the variation Bi2O3/PbF2 improves the gamma protection ability of Lead-fluoride based glasses. The longitudinal modulus-L, shear modulus-S, bulk modulus-K, and Young’s modulus-Y raised from 15.89 to 25.9 -GPa, from 8.49 to 12.09 -GPa, from 4.58 to 9.77 -GPa, and from 15.74 to 25.69 -GPa, respectively. The results indicate that the highest Bi2O3/PbF2 ratio encoded PbF80 has the best shielding and mechanical competence with measurable physical properties.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
