Composites cement/BaSO/FeO/CuO for improving X-ray absorption characteristics and structural properties.

Composite cement/BaSO/FeO/CuO with a thickness of 0.6 cm for various amounts of CuO: 2 wt%, 4 wt%, 6 wt%, and 8 wt% were successfully synthesized for the X-ray radiation shield. The bonding characteristics of composite and structural properties were determined using Fourier transform infrared spectra for the wavelength range of 4000-400 cm and X-ray diffraction with the range of 2θ from 25° to 50°, respectively.
