Abstract: X-ray are widely used across science, engineering and medicine. However, extended exposure can be harmful to humans, and therefore, it is necessary to use appropriate protection when using X-rays. Flexible X-ray resistant materials are used in protective aprons and other devices. The X-ray resistant materials attenuate X-rays by the photoelectric effect, the Compton effect, and the electron pair effect. Lead has resis-tant effect on X-rays due to its high atomic number (Z) and density, however, it is a toxic and heavy metal. Traditional flexible X-ray resistant materials contain lead, often have a short service life, a weak absorption zone, and poor air permeability. Other high-Z elements, such as W, Bi, Ta and Sn, have been suggested as raw materials for developing new flexible X-ray resistant fibers and fabrics without the use of lead. They are advantageous over lead-based materials because of their non-toxicity, high shielding efficiency, lightness and thinness, and thus, they are beco-ming popular for manufacturing flexible X-ray resistant materials. This article summarizes the protection mechanism and evaluation indicators and research progress of X-ray resistant materials. Herein, recent research progress in the application of lead-free flexible X-ray resistant materials is summarized from the technical perspective, along with the problems of related spinning and coated methods. The potential in the development of lead-free X-ray resistant materials is evaluated.
