Soft, ternary, X- and gamma-ray shielding materials: paraffin-based iron-encapsulated carbon nanotube nanocomposites

Abstract

Paraffin composites with iron-encapsulated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (Fe@MWCNTs) (10 and 20 wt%) – lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and prone to shape change at the average room temperature with the warmth of hands.
