Ensuring the safety of using "nuclear": Russian physicists invented a new type of anti-radiation glass

With the continuous development of nuclear science and technology, the application of nuclear technology has become more and more extensive.
"Nuclear" has gradually entered our daily life.
However, in order to ensure the safety of nuclear applications, we need to make preparations for nuclear radiation emergency, such as shortening exposure as much as possible.
Time and use obstructions to block or reduce the intensity of the radiation
.
According to the Russian satellite news agency sputniknews, scientists at the Ural Federal University (Yeltsin University) have developed a new type of radiation-proof glass, which has a protective effect three times that of existing similar products
.
The research results were published in the "Journal of Materials Research and Technology"
.
? The so-called heavy glass contains compounds with high atomic numbers that are used to protect personnel from radiation from nuclear power, nuclear industry facilities, laboratories, and medical centers
.
Scientists at the Ural Federal University have studied the radiation resistance of glass using promising materials
.
Scientists believe that experiments show that this glass has excellent shielding properties-the mass attenuation coefficient, free stroke length, ten times the attenuation layer and other radiation characteristics exceed the parameters traditionally used for radiation protection materials (concrete and lead)
.
? Maria Peshkina, a researcher in the Experimental Physics Department of Ural Federal University, said: "Our material absorbs photon radiation three times as effective as the popular similar product'heavy glass'
.
Therefore, when completing the same task, it The thickness is only one-third that of traditional products
.
This offers many advantages, including significant savings
.
” The research team intends to continue to study the radiation properties of new materials, aiming to study the composition of radiation protection systems
