Özet
In this study, we employed 3D printing technology to fabricate poly lactic acid (PLA) polymer samples infused with gadolinium oxide nanoparticles at additive rates of 10% and 20%. The objective was to explore their potential as radiation shielding aprons within the medical X-ray and thermal neutron energy spectrum. To facilitate comparisons, a PLA polymer sample with no additive was also produced. The homogeneity and well-defined structures of the PLA samples were observed using SEM and EDS analyses. Additionally, the excellent thermal stability of the proposed test samples was reported. In terms of gamma-ray shielding, there is a remarkable consistency between experiment, theory and simulation outcomes with a maximum discrepancy of approximately 5%. P-PLA-Gd20 sample exhibits attenuation capabilities against X-rays to a level that could serve as an alternative to lead. Additionally, the thermal …
