Polymer Radiation Attenuation

Polymer Radiation Attenuation is a materials science phenomenon characterized by the reduction in intensity of ionizing radiation as it propagates through polymeric materials, distinguished from other attenuation mechanisms by its reliance on the molecular structure and composition of polymers to absorb and dissipate radiation energy.
