摘要

A lead free radiation shielding material for protective clothing, eg aprons, consists of radiation absorption material based on elements with an atomic number higher than 50, integrated into an elastomer or plastomer. The elastomer or plastomer can be stretched to form a film, and bismuth or bismuth compounds are added for radiation absorption.
