Quan Shi,Narendiran Vitchuli,Joshua Nowak,Jane M. Caldwell,Frederick Breidt,Mohamed Bourham,Xiangwu Zhang,Marian McCord,Marian McCord +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a durable antibacterial Ag/polyacrylonitrile (Ag/PAN) hybrid nanofibers were prepared by atmospheric plasma treatment and electrospinning.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gamma-ray mass attenuation coefficient and half value layer factor of some oxide glass shielding materials
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of chemical composition on these parameters is investigated in the form of six different glass compositions, which are compared with specialty concrete for nuclear radiation shielding, particularly for dry cask storage.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quan Shi,Narendiran Vitchuli,Joshua Nowak,Jesse D. Noar,Jane M. Caldwell,Frederick Breidt,Mohamed Bourham,Marian McCord,Marian McCord,Xiangwu Zhang +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, a novel and facile one-step approach to in situ synthesize silver nanoparticle-filled nylon 6 nanofibers by electrospinning is reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparative study of different concrete composition as gamma-ray shielding materials
El-Sayed A. Waly,Mohamed Bourham +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a mixed concrete with 39.195% magnetite Fe 3 O 4 and 15.678% lead oxide PbO, named Concrete 6 in this study, has shown the best mass attenuation coefficient, exposure buildup factor and HVL values among other mixes thus minimizing the exposure rate to the acceptable levels.
