Abstract
The study of radiation shielding properties for a material is an important part of research in scientific world. It is expressed in terms of the linear linear coefficients (LAC) which can also be used to obtain some other parameters. The gamma shielding properties of glass with addition of boron oxides in different amounts were studied, thereby obtaining linear attenuation coefficients (LAC), mean free path (mfp), Exposure Buildup factor (EBF) which were calculated using Phy-X/PSD code. It was found that increasing boron oxide content of 0, 2, 4, 6, 8 (w %) in glass increased the gamma attenuation coefficients.
