Abstract
Radiation affecting the human body can cause harm to workers from the lightest to the most fatal. As a result of these interactions, cells can undergo structural changes. Therefore a radiation shield is needed for radiation protection purposes. In this research, a polyester composite sample was made with a variation of lead doping concentration and illumination strength test using a flux meter to determine the permeability of the sample to light, as well as an X-ray radiation absorption test of the sample as desired by the lead polyester being able to be an alternative from the constituent materials of lead glass as a radiation shield that has the advantage of a high level of elasticity so as to minimize the risk of damage (break). Obtained the best mixture composition of 30% Lead Acetate and 70% Lead Polyester, with a radiation exposure test of 35 µSv the results of the radiation absorbing dose on the thickness of the 15mm lead resin layer and Transparency test with an inhibitory value of light of 394 Lux from an initial light source of 700 lux and the rest of the light that is able to penetrate a sample of 306 Lux
