![]() ![]() Moreover, the initial stage in the computation of various shielding parameters, such as half-value layer, tenth value layer, and mean free path, besides the simulation of linear attenuation coefficient. The obtained mass attenuation coefficient data of the developed nanocomposites were comparable to the theoretical calculation performed with Phy-X/PSD software. The MCNP5 simulation code assessed the gamma-ray shielding effectiveness of four PVC + x% BiVO 4 nanocomposites. In addition, the particle size, morphology, and elemental composition of the BiVO 4 nanofiller were demonstrated through the utilization of TEM, SEM, and EDX spectra. ![]() XRD patterns and FTIR spectra demonstrated a successful fabrication and complexation of nanocomposite films. As a non-toxic nanofiller, the designed materials are low-cost, flexible, and lightweight plastic to replace traditional lead, which is toxic and dense. This study investigates the physical and optical properties as well as the radiation shielding capacity of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) loaded with x% of bismuth vanadate (BiVO 4) (x = 0, 1, 3, and 6 wt%).
