Examinations of mechanical, and shielding properties of CeO2 reinforced B2O3–ZnF2–Er2O3–ZnO glasses for gamma-ray shield and neutron applications
The glass system 75B2O3 - 4.5ZnF2 – 0.5 Er2O3–(20−x) ZnO- x CeO2, x = (0 ≤ x ≤ 1 mol. %) was manufactured using a melt quenching process, with CeO2 substituted for ZnO in the glass matrix in concentrations ranging from 0 to 1 mol %. The Makishima–Mackenzie model and sound wave velocity measurements...
