A glass-coated microwire includes a metal wire coated with a glass. The metal wire can contain, in weight %, 20 - 25% Bi, 6 - 12% Sn, 4 - 8 % In, 3 - 5% Cu, 0.6 - 1.5% Si, 0.05 - 1.2% Ce, and a balance of Pb. The glass coating can contain, in mol. %, 12 - 15% SrO, 10 - 12% B<SUB>2</SUB>O<SUB>3</SUB>, 1 - 3% Al<SUB>2</SUB>O<SUB>3</SUB>, 5 - 15% SiO<SUB>2</SUB>, 1 - 3% ZnO, 0.5 - 1.5% Li<SUB>2</SUB>O, 2 - 5% SnO, 2 - 8% K<SUB>2</SUB>O, and a balance of PbO. The glass-coated microwire provides improved shielding against X-ray radiation. |
