This study investigates the structural, mechanical, and radiation shielding properties of a series of novel bio glasses with the composition (55-x)TeO2-20Na2O-10CaO-15P2O5-xB2O3 (where x = 0, 3, 5, 10, and 20 mol%). The aim was to evaluate the effect of B2O3 addition on these properties. Empirical m...
