If you have a Web Browser, you there is a Web page that will calculate
attenuation coefficients for any element at any energy.  The program was
developed and is maintained at IIT.  Using this site you could generate the
table you need.  The times I have used the site, it has compared well with
other, published resuts.  The URL is http://www.csrri.iit.edu/mucal.html
