Effect of bismuth and lithium substitution on radiation shielding properties of zinc borate glass system using Phy-X/PSD simulation

The radiation shielding properties of zinc borate glasses with lithium oxide replacing bismuth oxide were investigated using Phy-X/PSD. The glasses have a composition of (25-x)Bi2O3-60B2O3-15ZnO-xLi2O, where x = 5, 10, 15, 20 and 25 mol%, and are coded as S1, S2, S3, S4, and S5 in increasing Li2O co...
