This study focuses on simulation of the radiation shielding parameters for nickel-based superalloys: Inconel 600, 718 and 725 superalloys. The partial interactions, mass attenuation coefficient value ( µm ), effective atomic number value ( Zeff ), effective electron density value ( Nel ) and half value layer (HVL) at photon energy ranging of 1 keV–100 GeV, were estimated theoretically by WinXCom software program. Moreover, buildup factors (energy absorption buildup factor and exposure buildup factor) were determined using geometrical progression (G-P) fitting method for energy ranging 0.015–15 MeV at deep penetration 1–40 mfp (mean free path).Also, fast neutron removal cross sections (Σ R ) were simulated by partial density method at energy ranging from 2 to 12 MeV. The results found that nickel-based superalloy Inconel 725 had excellent radiation shielding property. The study also brings the significance of these samples by comparing with standard commercial concrete.
