Lead aprons that are lead-shielding products are generally used for personal protection of physicians and patients from X-ray (gamma) radiation during medical operations; lead has environmental disadvantages, with high toxicity, though. Therefore, the aim of this research was to produce an environmentally friendly and flexible textile-based radiation shielding material. In this work, 2/2 twill, 3/1 twill, Herringbone, Whipcord, which are twill derivatives, Barathea and Crêpe woven fabrics, which are sateen derivatives, woven with textured steel yarns, which have soft feeling and flexibility, and gamma radiation shielding effectiveness of these fabrics were investigated and were not studied in the references. The effects of fabric structural characteristics such as weave, conductive weft yarn density, fabric thickness and porosity on these properties were analysed graphically and statistically. It is observed that with the biggest thicknesses and lowest porosities, Barathea and Crêpe woven fabrics performed better gamma radiation shielding performance than other woven fabrics. The samples F1 and E1, woven with Barathea and Crêpe weave, have the highest gamma radiation shielding effectiveness, thanks to the highest fabric thicknesses and lowest porosities. In addition, the increases of textured steel yarn density improved the gamma radiation shielding effectiveness of woven fabrics.

X-ray radioactive rays are widely used with the continuous development of radioactive medicine and nuclear technology applications, as well as lead shielding material pollutions new no lead shielding material was needed. In this paper, the main properties of metal tungsten and bismuth as X-ray shielding materials were studied for the protection people avoid the 150 kV X-rays by the Monte Carlo method is used to study. According to simulation with 2 kg/m2, results show that performance of single metal material tungsten iron is superior to that of bismuth material. Tungsten-bismuth better than bismuth-tungsten with the case of equal-quality double-layer metal. The protection performance is better when the metal-mixed tungsten-bismuth ratio is 0.5: 0.5 or the tungsten ratio is large. The research provides effective support for the development of textile radiation protection materials.

We reported a stretchable and flexible radiation-shielding film based on room-temperature liquid metal. Conceptual experiments showed that the liquid metal based printing technology can achieve an ultrathin flexible radiation-shielding film with a thickness of 0.3 mm. Moreover, the yield strength and ultimate strength of the liquid metal film appear much better than those of a conventional lead-particle-containing radiation-shielding material. In order to evaluate the radiation-shielding performance of the liquid metal material, X-ray radiation experiments to compare the liquid metal film and conventional lead-particle-based shielding material under different stretching conditions were performed. The results indicate that the liquid metal shielding film could achieve a certain radiation-shielding performance. Furthermore, because of the screen-printing properties of liquid metal, a low-cost X-ray mask method using a liquid metal selective radiation-shielding film was also studied, which could serve as a highly efficient and practical method for the medical X-ray shielding applications or semiconductor lithography industry.

Abstract Currently radiopaque polymers are of great interest to medicine and dentistry because of their wide area of applications such as catheters, surgical tools, dental products, radiation shielders etc. Lead has historically been used as the shielding material, but not without health and environmental concerns. In this work, we have prepared radiopaque materials from natural rubber (NR) through different routes. Natural rubber was iodinated and characterized using UV-VIS spectroscopy, thermo gravimetric analysis and clinical X-ray techniques. The physical properties of Iodinated NR compounds prepared at ambient and high temperatures were studied. The low temperature cured samples showed better radiopacity and conductivity than high temperature cured samples. Radiopaque NR was prepared using radiopacifiers like barytes, barium sulphate, zinc oxide and active zinc oxide. The physical properties of the NR vulcanizates with different radiopacifiers were studied. Clinical X-ray techniques have been used to confirm the radiopacity. The optical density of the samples were measured and compared with that of conventionally used lead shield.
