Abstract

The frequency of development contemporary technologies is strongly connected to the creation of new composite materials with multi-functional application. They should be characterised with all necessary complex properties for functioning in extreme conditions. The radiation materials science has one of the important segments among the huge spectrum in materials science. Ther e is much interest in above mentioned materials in nuclear technologies. In particul ar, there are increased requirements in key- segments in nuclear reactors (under high-loading and high temperatures) working in extreme conditions. Accordingly, investiga tions for creating radiation-resistant and radioprotective materials (protecting from neutron and gamma radiation) are more active day after day. Accordingly, it is actual to create composite materials having the optimal ratio mixtures of constituents, which can produce stable ph ysical-chemical and radiation-resistant properties and characterized w ith abilities of inactiv ated absorption of various types of neutron and gamma irradiation. In the pape r the results of optimization of Me–Gd and Me-B containing composition for desired properties of developed materials and preliminary experimental results are discussed.
