This Cooperative Agreement from the National Science Foundation's Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships program totals $991,621 and runs from February 15, 2023 through January 31, 2025. It supports Stark Street Materials Company of Portland, Oregon in developing manufacturing feasibility for new radiation shielding fabrics using bismuth as a safer, non-toxic alternative to lead. Phase I demonstrated molding composite materials with over 85% bismuth particle filler to produce fabric with exceptional elasticity, high x-ray attenuation, and a thin profile, outperforming existing radiation shielding fabrics. This phase addresses processing challenges to fabricate the material on a commercial scale for use in medical garments, reducing lead exposure risk for healthcare workers who rely on radiation shielding for much of their workday.
