Effect of SiO2–SnO2 Nanofiller on the Characteristics of Biopolymer Blend and Its Application as Gamma-Ray Shielding
367–378 (2024)

PACS numbers: 61.72.Ff, 61.80.Ed, 68.37.Hk, 81.07.Pr, 82.35.Np, 83.60.Np, 87.64.M-

In this paper, the synthesis of novel (polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC)/silicon dioxide (SiO2) and tin oxide (SnO2)) nanocomposites to apply for gamma-ray shielding with low unit cost, flexible, lightweight, and high corrosion resistance. Scanning electron microscopy analysis of the nanocomposites consisting of PVA–CMC–SiO2–SnO2 films reveals the presence of numerous aggregates or fragments, which exhibit the consistent and coherent distribution on the upper surface. The optical microscope analysis of the blend additive distribution of nanoparticles indicates the uniform and homogeneous pattern. The prepared nanocomposites underwent testing to evaluate their effectiveness in shielding against gamma-rays. The experimental findings indicate that the nanocomposite films of PVA–CMC–SiO2–SnO2 exhibit significant attenuation levels for gamma-rays

KEY WORDS: nanocomposites, SiO2–SnO2 nanoparticles, polyvinyl alcohol, carboxymethyl cellulose, structural properties, gamma-rays
