본 연구에서는 기존의 납을 대체할 수 있는 의료 방사선 차폐제품 적용을 위해 몬테카를로 시뮬레이션을 통해 바륨화합물의 두께별 차폐능을 모의 추정하였다. 차폐재 물질로는 황산바륨($BaSO_4$)을 이용하였고, 시편의 면적은 $15{\times}15cm^2$, 황산바륨의 밀도는 $4.5g/cm^3$, 납의 밀도 $11.34g/cm^3$를 적용하여 차폐재 시편의 두께를 0.1 mm부터 5 mm까지 시뮬레이션 하였다. 입력 선원은 연속 X-ray 에너지 스펙트럼(40 kVp ~ 120 kVp)에서 10kVp Step으로 시뮬레이션하였다. 40 kVp ~ 60 kVp에서의 흡수확률은 3 mm ~ 5 mm 두께에서는 납과 동일한 차폐능을 나타내었으나, 2 mm 이하에서는 차폐능이 기존 납 차폐재에 비해 다소 차폐능이 떨어지는 결과로 나타났다. 또한 70 kVp ~ 120 kVp 에너지 대역에서의 차폐능은 기존 납 차폐재와 유사한 성능을 보였지만, 0.5 mm 이하에서는 다소 낮은 차폐능으로 모의 추정되었다. 본 연구는 몬테카를로 시뮬레이션을 통해 의료용 엑스선 에너지 대역에 대한 두께 함수로써 바륨화합물의 차폐능을 추정하여 기존의 납과 비교 분석하였다. 또한 순수한 황산바륨의 의료용 방사선 차폐제품 적용가능성을 검증하고자 하였다. 그 결과 의료 방사선 에너지 대역 70 kVp ~ 120 kVp 에서 최소 2 mm 이상의 바륨화합물 두께에서 기존 납 1.5 mm 대비 95% 이상의 차폐효과가 있는 것으로 추정되었으며, 본 결과는 의료용 방사선 차폐제품의 경량화 제작에 기초 자료로 제공될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

In this paper, shielding effectiveness(SE) of the shielding paint of electromagnetic(EM) waves was investigated with actual experiments. The shielding paint used in this study were made of powder of conductive materials - Ag, Cu, Al, Sn, Ni. Cr, Graphite and Charcoal etc. with a solubility in oil and water. Also, the paper was used as a base sheet. The experiment was carried out by using a shielding evaluator(Shielding box) TR17302 with an ADVANTEST spectrum analyzer, model R3361C. It was found from the experimental results that silver, copper, nickel were good candidates as a shielding material against the EM waves with increasing the SE as the composite was laminated. The characteristics of the SE against the EM waves depended on a mode of preparation of specimen. The effects of density of particles on the SE were studied about the EM shielding paint. The SE strongly depended on the electric resistance by density of painting particles. SE increased as the density of particles was increasing.

Concrete is considered to be one of the excellent and versatile shielding material and is widely used for the radiation shielding materials. This paper aims to study mechanical properties of concrete by using normal cement, natural and heavyweight aggregate and their radiation shielding effects through radiation transmission tests.

In this study, the electromagnetic shielding performance of mortar with different metal fiber, as part of the development of a electromagnetic shielding construction material, was measured according to KS C 0304. The results showed that the amorphous steel fibers can shield electromagnetic effectively than the oter conventional steel fibers. The superior performance of the amorphous steel fiber may be attributed its plate shape geometry.

The cure characteristics of metal particle filled DGEBA/MDA/SN/ zeolite epoxy resin composite system for EMI shielding were investigated by dynamic DSC run method and FT-lR spectroscopy. As the heating rate increased, the peak temperature on dynamic DSC curve increased because of the rapid cure reaction. From the straight line of the Kissinger plot, the curing reaction activation energy and pre-exponential factor could be obtained. As the post-curing time at 15$0^{\circ}C$ increased, the glass increased the glass transition temperature or the thermal stability increased. When the post curing time is too long, the system filled with metallic Al particle can be thermally oxidized by the catalytic reaction of metal filler and the thermal stability of the composite for the EMI shielding application may be decreased.

Shielding effects in conductive and magnetic materials were investigated as a function of properties, thickness and diameter. In this work, evaluations on passive conductive and magnetic shield specimens were achieved through experimentation set-up using 50 Hz single and three phase induction field sources. Analysis on material microstructure properties and characteristics of shielding specimens were performed with the use of vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM). An induction field at $136{\mu}T$ of single phase system and $50{\mu}T$ of three phase systems were observed to the shield specimens with the thickness ranged of 0.2 mm to 0.4 mm. It is observed that shield specimen efficiency becomes inversely proportionate to the increment of induction fields. The decrease was attributed to the surface structure texture which relates to the crystallization and non-crystallization geometrical effects.

A comprehensive study of photon interaction features has been made for some alloys containing Pd and Ag content to evaluate its possible use as alternative gamma radiations shielding material. The mass attenuation coefficient (${\mu}/{\rho}$) of the present alloys was measured at various photon energies between 81 keV-1333 keV utilizing HPGe detector. The measured ${\mu}/{\rho}$ values were compared to those of theoretical and computational (MCNPX code) results. The results exhibited that the ${\mu}/{\rho}$ values of the studied alloys are in the same line with results of WinXCOM software and MCNPX code results at all energies. Moreover, Pd75/Ag25 alloy sample has the maximum radiation protection efficiency (about 53% at 81 keV) and lowest half value layer, which shows that Pd75/Ag25 has superior gamma radiation shielding performance among the other compared alloys.

Biochar is a novel carbon based material derived from waste that shows promising properties for several applications. In this paper we investigate its potential use as a low cost, greener alternative to commonly used aggregates employed to enhance the neutron shielding performance of concrete. Monte Carlo simulations are performed with the PHITS code to estimate the neutron attenuation of blank and biochar-reinforced concrete exposed to high energy neutrons. We find that the shielding performance of concrete with 15% biochar is comparable with commonly used materials such as Boron Carbide at 20% and exceeds that of Basalt fibers with the same concentration, making these composites an interesting greener alternative to current solutions. A combination of biochar and heavier fillers also show extremely promising performance.

Recent advancements in electronic devices and wireless communication technologies, particularly the rise of 5G, have raised concerns about the escalating electromagnetic pollution and its potential adverse impacts on human health and electronics. As a result, the demand for effective electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding materials has grown significantly. Traditional materials face limitations in providing optimal solutions owing to inadequacy and low performance due to small thickness. MXene-based composite materials have emerged as promising candidates in this context owing to their exceptional electrical properties, high conductivity, and superior EMI shielding efficiency across a broad frequency range. This review examines the recent developments and advantages of MXene-based composite materials in EMI shielding applications, emphasizing their potential to address the challenges posed by electromagnetic pollution and to foster advancements in modern electronics systems and vital technologies.

몬테카를로 기법을 기반으로 한 모의실험을 통해 방사성 핵종별 주사기 차폐기구의 재질 및 두께에 대한 차폐분석 결과, 텅스텐, 납, 비스무스와 같이 상대적으로 원자번호가 높은 재질의 경우 거의 모든 핵종에서 가장 높은 차폐효과를 보였다. 그러나 $^{18}F$, $^{67}Ga$, $^{111}In$ 선원의 경우, 차폐두께가 낮은 영역에서 저 원자번호 재질보다 더 높은 에너지를 나타냈으나, 이후 증가된 차폐두께에서는 투과되어 도달하는 감마선이 감소하여 더 낮은 에너지 분포를 나타냈다. 그 외 상대적으로 원자번호가 낮은 재질의 경우 구리, 철, 스테인리스강, 황산바륨의 순서로 에너지가 낮은 분포를 나타냈고, 알루미늄, 플라스틱, 콘크리트, 물의 경우 핵종별로 각기 다른 양상을 나타냈으며, 상대적으로 투과된 감마선의 증가로 전체적으로 높은 에너지 분포를 보여 차폐효과가 떨어지는 것으로 나타냈다.
