Size matters: Radiation shielding superiority of borate glasses with nano vs. micro ZnO

In this study, the melt quenching technique was used to fabricate the glass samples have the general formula: 20PbO-15BaO-(65-x)B2O3-xZnO, x = 5, 10 and 15 mol%. For each composition, two types of glasses were fabricated: the first using micro-ZnO and the other one using nano-ZnO. The LAC '...
