A device for protection of a body from radiation includes at least one flexible garment. Each section of the flexible garment is configured to shield a region of a surface of the body. Each section complementarily attenuates self-shielding by internal structure between the region and an interior region of the body such that radiation at the interior region is attenuated to a predefined attenuation level.

Certain exemplary embodiments can provide a system comprising a substantially transparent radiation shield, which comprises transparent ammonium metatungstate. The transparent ammonium metatungstate can have a density of greater than 1.5 gram/(cubic centimeter). The substantially transparent radiation shield can be installed on tanks and/or pressure vessels, used as a transparent radiation shield in medical shielding/devices, used as windows in glove boxes, and any application where effective radiation shielding is needed with transparency. The substantially transparent radiation shield can be used in one or more articles worn by a human.

The conventional radiation shielding materials are made using lead, barite and hematite ore which are either toxic, costly and are non-replinshable possessing limited functionality. In view of above, we develop a novel process for making advanced non-toxic Red Mud based functional radiation shielding materials utilizing appropriate novel matrixes like Advanced geopolymer, geopolymeric-polymeric matrix, putty, cement and phosphatic based matrix and are also compatible with conventional matrixes. The appropriate physico-chemical consolidation and or densification of red mud using advanced or conventional matrix helps in obtaining functional radiation shielding material by simultaneous and synergistic chemical reactions among various mineralogical and chemical compounds of red mud with complementary various chemical compounds present in citrus fruit peel waste especially citric acid to form nano gel material to obtain the fine tailored shielding powder. The developed material has broad application spectrum from diagnostic radiation installations like diagnostic X-ray to CT scanner room.

A remote control protector for anti-light interference includes a body and a shelter. The body includes a housing space, a first surface, and a second surface. The housing space is for disposing a remote control. The first surface includes a first opening communicating with the housing space. The second surface includes a second opening communicating with the housing space and the second opening is adapted to expose a transceiver of the remote control. The shelter extends from the second surface of the body along an axial direction of the body, surrounds the second surface, and has an outlet opening communicating with the second opening of the second surface.

A light-weight radiation protection panel comprising radiation protection layer and a flexible material. The radiation protection layer comprises a plurality of a shielding material distributed in repeated and adjacent units of geometrical shapes, the light-weight radiation protection panel being able to be embodied in a wearable garment providing flexibility.

The disclosed subject matter relates to a radiation shielding apparatus including a cryogenic vessel and a cryogenic hydrogen radiation shielding material capable of providing a radiation shield, the cryogenic hydrogen radiation shielding material including cryogenic hydrogen.

Embodiments herein disclose a shielding curtain that is configured to block through passage of electromagnetic radiation. The shielding curtain may be a flap portion of a larger shielding curtain or a single, unitary body that includes a single mounting bead and a plurality of flaps. The shielding curtain is formed of a polymer material that has a uniformly dispersed particulate material. Electromagnetic radiation emitted by an inspection system is blocked by the uniformly dispersed particulate material.
