Tungsten nuclear radiation shield is made of tungsten alloy and has good shielding properties against X-rays and gamma rays. It is widely used in the medical field, safety inspections, and industrial irradiation.
Characteristic
Tungsten nuclear radiation shield has excellent shielding properties for X-rays and gamma rays, absorbing 60% more than lead. It has a very high melting point and can be used in high temperature environments where lead cannot be used, such as nuclear waste containers.
Applications
Due to the unique properties of tungsten alloys, tungsten nuclear radiation shield is widely used in the medical field. It can be used as collimators, targets, PET shielding syringes, protective cans and so on. It can be used for security inspections at stations and airports, protecting workers from radiation damage from scanner radiation sources. It can also be used in industrial exposures such as pipeline inspections (collimators and shields).
