A novel, unconventional, low cost, eco-friendly and effective shielding materials have been made utilizing the hot dip galvanizing slag using the heat waste from itself, thereby saving the natural resources and preventing the environmental pollution. SEM-EDS of shielding materials indicates that the other elements are distributed in Zn element. The mass attenuation properties of shielding materials were measured using a narrow beam geometrical setup at 0.662 MeV, 1.17 MeV and 1.33MeV. The half value thickness layer, effective atomic number, and electron density were used to analyze the shielding performance of the materials. The EBFs and EABFs for the prepared shielding materials were also studied with incident photon energy for penetration depths upto 40mfp. The shielding effectiveness has been compared with lead, iron, zinc, some standard shielding concretes, different glasses and some alloys. The shielding effectiveness of the prepared samples is almost found comparable to iron, zinc, selected alloys and glasses while better than some standard shielding concretes. In addition, it is also found that the bending strength of all shielding materials is more than 110 MPa.

一种利用热浸镀锌矿渣的新方法，利用其自身产生的热量来防止辐射

已经利用热浸镀锌渣利用自身的热废料制备了一种新颖，非常规，低成本，环保和有效的屏蔽材料，从而节省了自然资源并防止了环境污染。屏蔽材料的SEM-EDS表明，其他元素分布在Zn元素中。使用窄束几何设置在0.662 MeV，1.17 MeV和1.33MeV下测量屏蔽材料的质量衰减特性。使用半值厚度层，有效原子序数和电子密度来分析材料的屏蔽性能。还使用入射光子能量研究了制备的屏蔽材料的EBF和EABF，其穿透深度高达40mfp。屏蔽效果已与铅，铁，锌，一些标准的屏蔽混凝土，不同的玻璃和某些合金。几乎可以发现，所制备样品的屏蔽效果可与铁，锌，某些合金和玻璃媲美，同时也比某些标准屏蔽混凝土要好。此外，还发现所有屏蔽材料的抗弯强度均大于110 MPa。
