Abstract

The objective of this work is to examine gamma-ray attenuation characteristics of various chemical fertilizers between 81 and 1332 keV photon energies. The chemical fertilizers were labelled from F1 to F8. The experimental and theoretical mass attenuation coefficients (MACs) of chemical fertilizers were calculated and compared. Theoretical values of MACs are higher than experimental values of the MACs. The F4 has the smallest half value layers, tenth value layers and mean free paths except for 81 keV photon energy in the studied chemical fertilizers. Excluding 81 keV photon energy, radiation protection efficiency values of F4 are the highest in the studied chemical fertilizers. It can be concluded that F4 has better radiation attenuation characteristics between 276 and 1332 keV photon energies. The transmission factors of studied chemical fertilizers ascend with enhancement of photon energy. The effective atomic numbers of F1 are higher than other samples. The effective electron densities of F1 are higher than other samples between 81 and 384 keV photon energies and those of F2 are higher than other samples between 662 and 1332 keV photon energies.

各种化肥的γ射线衰减特性

本文研究了不同化学肥料在81 ~ 1332 keV光子能量范围内的伽马射线衰减特性。化肥按F1至F8编号。计算并比较了化学肥料的试验质量衰减系数和理论质量衰减系数。MACs的理论值高于MACs的实验值。除81kev光子能量外，F4在所研究的化肥中具有最小的半值层、10值层和平均自由程。除81 keV光子能量外，F4的辐射防护效率值在所研究的化肥中最高。可以得出F4在276 ~ 1332 keV光子能量范围内具有较好的辐射衰减特性。随着光子能量的增强，所研究的化肥的透射系数增大。F1的有效原子序数高于其他样品。在81 ~ 384 keV光子能量范围内，F1的有效电子密度高于其他样品;在662 ~ 1332 keV光子能量范围内，F2的有效电子密度高于其他样品。
