In the field of radiation shielding, especially in radiotherapy and measurement targeting the human body, radiation should be applied only to the target area, and radiation should not be applied to areas that do not require irradiation. is required. However, since it is substantially difficult to irradiate the radiation only to the part to be irradiated, the part other than the part to be inspected is covered with a shielding material for shielding the radiation to cover the subject. Measures are taken to protect against radiation. In addition, for X-ray rooms and X-ray examination vehicles equipped with an apparatus that generates X-rays, in order to prevent leakage of X-rays from the wall surface to the outside or the vehicle, a shielding material is attached to the wall surface. Measures are taken. In addition, during X-ray photography, doctors and patients wear X-ray protective clothing to avoid X-ray exposure. In particular, thin shielding sheets are required for applications that require an area, applications that are used alone as a shielding material, applications that are used in a narrow area, and applications that require flexibility.

As materials for shielding X-rays, lead and composite materials containing lead have been mainly used so far (see Non-Patent Documents 1 and 2). However, lead is harmful when absorbed by the human body, and special care must be taken in its handling and disposal. In other words, handling requires compliance with strict regulations under the lead poisoning prevention regulations, and disposal requires treatment that blocks elution and exudation to the outside environment as specific hazardous industrial waste.
In recent years, tungsten, tin, antimony, bismuth, barium and their compounds have been proposed as radiation shielding materials in place of lead (see Patent Documents 1 and 2). For X-ray protective clothing and the like that require flexibility, materials obtained by blending these materials with resin or rubber are generally used. In addition, an acrylic plate or the like is used for relatively weak radiation, and a plate-shaped radiation shielding material such as a tungsten plate is used for relatively strong radiation.

However, tungsten has a high shielding ability against radiation, but is an expensive material as an alternative to Pb. Bismuth has the same shielding ability as Pb, but is a relatively expensive material. On the other hand, since antimony, tin, and barium do not have sufficient radiation shielding capability, the shielding sheet becomes thick. Antimony has been suggested to have the same toxicity as arsenic.
From the above, there has been a demand for a radiation shielding sheet that has no environmental problems, is economical and has a thin thickness and high radiation shielding ability.

In conventional radiation shielding materials, lead and composite materials containing lead have been used, but they are harmful when absorbed by the human body, and special care is required for their handling and disposal.
Tungsten, tin, antimony, bismuth and their compounds have been proposed as radiation shielding materials in place of lead, but tungsten, bismuth and their compounds are expensive materials as alternatives to Pb, and especially tungsten is easily oxidized. It is also a material. Tin, antimony, barium and their compounds had insufficient shielding ability, and the sheet thickness had to be increased.
Therefore, the present invention provides a radiation shielding sheet that is free from environmental problems, is economical, has a small thickness, and has a high radiation shielding ability.

The radiation shielding material of the present invention is a rare earth-based oxide powder that is free from environmental problems and excellent in economic efficiency. In particular, when comprehensively judging the shielding ability and economy, oxide powders of lanthanum, cerium, praseodymium, neodymium, samarium, europium, and gadolinium are most effective, and at least one kind is preferably contained. Furthermore, cerium oxide powder is preferable. In addition, since the oxide powder has a relatively low specific gravity compared to tungsten or the like, the filling rate tends to be low in manufacturing the shielding sheet, and as a result, the radiation shielding ability is also lowered. Therefore, the filling rate is preferably 40 to 80%.
Here, the filling rate P of the shielding material powder of the shielding layer made of the organic polymer material and the shielding material is a value obtained based on the following formula.
P = VP / V = W / V / ρP
(Where VP is the volume of the shielding material, V is the volume of the shielding layer, W is the mass of the shielding material, and ρP is the density of the shielding material.)

Further, other materials having a high shielding ability may be mixed. For example, tungsten and a tungsten compound, and bismuth and a bismuth compound may be mixed, but the ratio should not be impaired, and mixing up to 30% by weight is desirable. Further, tin may be mixed to such an extent that the shielding ability is not impaired, and mixing up to 40% by weight is desirable.
Use of these materials provides excellent economic efficiency, high radiation shielding ability, and almost no adverse effects on the environment and human body compared to the use of lead and lead alloys, and is hygienic and safe. Products can be provided.

Although the radiation shielding material is used as a powder, the content of the shielding material powder is preferably 80% by weight or more and 95% by weight or less. When the content of the shielding material powder is less than 80% by weight, the radiation shielding ability is lowered, which is not practical. When the content of the shielding material powder exceeds 95% by weight, the shielding material powder particles are not completely taken into the resin, and the strength of the entire material cannot be maintained.

The oxide powder of the radiation shielding material is F.I. s. s. s. (Fischer sub-sieve sizer) Average particle size (mean particle size measured with an apparatus according to JIS H 2116) of 1 to 20
It is preferable to set it as micrometer. By setting the particle size within this range, the powder particles can be easily taken into the resin, and the flexibility of the whole material can be easily maintained. Problems such as cracks in handling are eliminated, and the reliability is further improved. . In addition, the filling rate is increased, and the shielding ability can be improved.

The characteristic shielding sheet of the present invention is that the sheet thickness is thin. In general, an organic polymer material and a shielding material are mixed and dispersed to prepare a coating solution, and the sheet is formed with a doctor blade, a roll coater, a knife coater, or the like. In normal sheet forming under normal pressure, air is likely to be mixed and voids are likely to occur. This void is particularly likely to occur around the shielding material. Furthermore, as the content of the shielding material increases with respect to the organic polymer material, the shielding material becomes dense, and a large amount of voids are likely to occur between the shielding material particles. That is, the sheet thickness tends to increase.
Therefore, the shielding sheet obtained by sheet molding is heated at a temperature not lower than the glass transition point and not higher than the melting point of the organic polymer material, and is subjected to a compression treatment at a pressure of 50 to 150 kg / cm 2 , whereby voids in the sheet are obtained. Decrease.
In such a shielding sheet, the content of the organic polymer material is 5 to 20% by weight, and the porosity in the sheet after the compression treatment is preferably 10 to 30%. When the content of the organic polymer material is less than 5% by weight, the amount of the organic polymer material is insufficient, the adhesion with the shielding material powder becomes weak, and the powder easily falls off. When it exceeds 20% by weight, the effect of reducing the sheet thickness is lost, and at the same time, the density of the shielding sheet is lowered and the shielding ability is lowered.
