Radiation shielding sheet was manufactured using BaSO4 and a combination of tourmaline, tungsten, silicon and rubber polymer. ► The particle packing of barium tends to be related to the tensile strength. ► The tensile strength was most excellent in the sheets containing rubber. ► The shielding ability of the tungsten and silicon combination with BaSO4 was the same as that of a 0.3 mm lead equivalent.
