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...

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 represents the modifier oxides) were fabricated using the melt quench method, and their physical, mechanical, and radiation attenuation parameters were reported. For this aim, Monte Carlo simulation was employed to predict the radiation attenuation parameters, while the Makishima-Mackenzie model was adopted to determine the mechanical properties. The tightly packed structure with better cross-linkage density is possessed by the Ti-containing glass (SBT-Ti) system among the titled glass batch.
