Development and Characterization of S-glass Fiber/Bi₂O₃-reinforced Epoxy Hybrid Composites for Enhanced Mechanical Performance and Gamma Radiation Shielding
Conventional epoxy composites offer low weight and good processability but provide limited gamma-ray attenuation and mechanical resistance, while lead-based shields are heavy and toxic. This study develops a lead-free multifunctional composite by combining silane-treated S-glass fibres and chemically precipitated Bi₂O₃...
