FLUKA and GEANT4 Monte Carlo programs were used to design new neutron-shielding material. After finding the epoxy/Mo ratio for the best shielding capacity, neutron equivalent dose rate measurements were performed. Results were compared to commonly used neutron-shielding materials such as paraffin, steel, concrete, and B4C. The produced new sample has a high neutron shielding capacity and it can be used for neutron protection purposes.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessPolymer compositesNeutron shieldingEpoxy resinMonte Carlo simulationsMolybdenum powderArticle20432332910.1080/1023666X.2015.10177902-s2.0-84929157557Q3WOS:000354114700005Q3
