Abstract

Neutron shielding is essential in various Applications including high-energy physics experiments, medical physics, space exploration studies, and nuclear power generation. Because of their easily adjustable features, such as their electrical neutrality and high penetration, high-tech materials are usually used to attenuate the neutrons in these applications. In addition to lead, other common materials include borated polyethylene and concrete. But these materials are big and heavy, and they have environmental problems that could lead to a shift to alternative technologies.

Metallic amorphous alloys (MAA), also referred to as bulk metallic glasses, are one of the newest scientific developments with enormous promise for neutron shielding because of their amorphous atomic structure. The amorphous structure of metallic alloys is thought to be responsible for their distinctive characteristics. The alloy has a high mechanical strength, is corrosion-resistant, and remains stable at high temperatures. Composition flexibility is made feasible by the fact that MAAs can contain elements like as boron, gadolinium, and dysprosium, all of which have a very large neutron capture cross-section and enhance both thermal and fast neutron attenuation.

The extraordinary versatility and properties of MAAs make them a suitable option for the next generation of materials to be used for neutron shielding. They are used in nuclear reactors as robust barriers and for lightweight shielding to be used in space travel, among other applications. This paper will discuss the basic properties, advantages over conventional materials, and possible uses of MAAs in neutron attenuation. This research seriously in-depths the challenges presently being faced by the programme, analyses them in a panoramic context, and evaluates their efficacy comprehensively with the hope that it will prove what makes MAA so revolutionizing when significantly improving the security aspect of Radiation Shielding Technology alongside an overall efficiency.
