| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Metal functional paper (MFP) is a novel paper-based radiation-shielding material, which is based on tungsten . The MFP has a lot of future of lead-free, light, flexible, and easily processed, it contains very fine metal powder at as much as 80% by weight. We described evaluations of wet strength, tensile strength and air resistance according to Japanese Industrial Standard. The shielding characteristics were measured with x-ray and gamma-ray.We also investigated radiation protection for operators during interventional or therapeutic angiography and dosimetric changes due to MFP shielding for with 4, 6, and 9 MeV electron beams. MFP has shielding abilitiy against x-ray and gamma-ray and is very promising as a useful tool for radiation protection.
