ABPBI/MWCNT for proton radiation shielding in low earth orbit

When planning for any space mission, shielding against ionizing radiation is essential. Polymers, combined with a nano-filler material to reinforce and enhance the polymer properties, can provide a sufficient radiation shielding function with lower weight and less secondary radiation generation than...
