Attenuation properties of poly methyl methacrylate reinforced with micro/nano ZrO2 as gamma-ray shields

Abstract This research aimed to examine the radiation shielding properties of unique polymer composites for medical and non-medical applications. For this purpose, polymer composites, based on poly methyl methacrylate (PMMA) as a matrix, were prepared and reinforced with micro- and nanoparticles of...
