Tungsten Heavy Alloy Nuclear Research radiation shielding--- Homeland Security and Border Control
Nuclear research establishments use nuclear reactors or cyclotrons to study or create radioactive materials. Tungsten Alloy is used in research activities as collimators (devices which guide or focus beams of radiation) or containers for radioactive isotopes. tungsten alloy is ideal for shielding against both X- and Gamma radiation. The very high density of tungsten shielding (more than 60% denser than lead) allows a reduction in the physical size of shielding components, without compromising the effectiveness of the shielding characteristics.
Homeland Security and Border Control
The penetrating power of radiation has also been put to use in the fight against terrorism. The Homeland Security industry has designed scanners that use gamma radiation to detect objects in cargo containers or airline baggage.
The radioactive sources are very strong and require WOLFMET tungsten shielding to protect security staff and members of the public from the radiation. A tungsten collimator is also required to direct the gamma radiation onto its target
