Impact of Modifier Oxides on Mechanical and Radiation Shielding Properties of B<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>-SrO-TeO<sub>2</sub>-RO Glasses (Where RO = TiO<sub>2</sub>, ZnO, BaO, and PbO)

The influence of modifier oxides (TiO<sub>2</sub>, ZnO, BaO, and PbO) on the mechanical and radiation shielding properties of boro-tellurate glasses is investigated. Samples with a composition of B<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>-SrO-TeO<sub>2</sub>-RO (RO re...
