Due to the heavy weight of the aggregate bleeding and segregation issues were observed in trial mixes; hence those mixes were discarded and superplasticizer Chemrite SP303 from Emporient Chemical was used Effect of elevated temperature on radiation shielding properties of cement and geopolymer mortars including barite aggregate and
When barite aggregate and recycled funnel glass were used instead of natural coarse and fine aggre studies performed to utilize this slag as heavy aggregate have been very limited
Limestone and barite with particle sizes ranging between 5 and 20 mm were used as coarse aggregate The barite used in this study was taken from a local mine in Thailand which contributes the formation of an exceptional interfacial transition zone between the heavy aggregate/lead fiber and the cementitious matrix The type of heavy

The concrete specimens were manufactured using a variety of mineral aggregates and only one cement type CEM I N SR5/LH/NA a special low heat low alkali high sulphate resistant cement described in [15] and a constant water to cement ratio w/c = composition of the concrete mixes is shown in Table fine aggregate local
The specific gravity of barite as a coarse aggregate was greater than serpentine magnetite and goethite [17] Esen and Yilmazer [19] [20] explored the X ray and radioisotope energy absorption of barite based heavy concrete Their findings revealed an increase in both density and energy absorption capability with higher barite concentrations
In barite aggregate B2 in addition to crystals of BaSO 4 and SiO 2 the cristobalite high temperature polymorph of silica was also found The content of quartz crystals in the heavy aggregate was determined using the thin sections analysis technique The content of quartz grains in the range of 10 60 μm in hematite aggregate was much
Silica sand was also compared with barite and hematite This present study mainly aimed to investigate the suitability of some natural high density minerals barite and hematite in producing high performance heavy density concrete that could provide better absorption against γ rays than silica sand As a case study the radiation
Accurate measurements have been made to determine radiation transmission of concretes produced with barite colemanite and normal aggregate by using beam transmission method for MeV γ rays energy of 137 Cs radioactive isotopes by using NaI Tl scintillation detector Linear and mass attenuation coefficients of thirteen heavy and four normal weight
Earlier study by Oto [8] and more recent study results by Han et al [9] have demonstrated that both the gamma ray shielding effectiveness and neutron radiation shielding performance of concrete significantly increases with higher content of heavy weight aggregate magnetite or limonite attributed primarily to the significant apparent density and inherent
In this study experimental and theoretical work on barite concrete with nanomaterials against gamma and neutron radiations were implemented Besides density radiation energy and the type of aggregate which are the main variables in radiation attenuation the researchers focused on nanomaterials with a higher atomic number such as TiO 2 and Fe
High amounts of BaSO 4 of barite as heavy aggregate have been found to be effective for shielding of γ rays Experimental results have been found close to those found in similar studies in the literature [38] The linear absorption coefficient decreased for colemanite samples with an increase in the colemanite ratio For the colemanite samples

High performance heavy density concrete made with magnetite coarse aggregate with 10% SF reaches the highest compressive strength exceeding over the M60 requirement by 14% after 28 days Whereas the compressive strength of concrete containing barite aggregate was very close to M60 and increases up to 90 days
The other main problem is the diversity of aggregates in properties due to excavation location Barite for instance may contain 90% BaSO 4 as well as 65% It may be possible that the gamma ray strike with heavy aggregate or cement particles at this temperature range tends to attenuate more compared to mixes at different temperatures Khan
The aggregate of con crete containing many heavy elements plays an important role [9 10] and ECPRC 203 [12] The results showed that barite coarse aggregate had a higher specific gravity than magnetite goethite and serpentine Furthermore water absorption of goethite aggregate was several times higher than that of bar
