Abstract
A filled composition for radiation shielding includes at least one polymer ingredient and at least one metal-containing filler. The at least one polymer ingredient is selected from the group consisting of a polyolefin elastomer, a polyolefin co-polymer, a polyolefin ter-polymer, and a combination thereof. The polyolefin elastomer, the polyolefin co-polymer, or the polyolefin ter-polymer includes monomer units derived from ethylene and at least one vinyl monomer having more than three carbon atoms. The at least one metal-containing filler is selected from a metal filler, a metal compound or a combination thereof.
