Tungsten alloy radiation shield has excellent radiation shielding performance and environmental performance. It can ensure that when storing and transporting equipment involving radioactive substances, the radiation generated by the radiation source is the lowest level. So it reduces the diseases caused by radiation and become a good alternative to the traditional new radiation shielding for lead and steel.
Characteristics
Tungsten alloy shields have higher density than other radiation shielding materials, so they can exhibit better radiation shielding capabilities. It has strong γ-ray linear attenuation capability. Under the same shielding ability, the tungsten alloy shielding is smaller and thinner, and has stronger radiation absorption ability.
Applications
The use of tungsten alloy radiation shield in radiation protection is not restricted by NRC, EPA, or special OSHA regulations. It has been widely used in nuclear medicine as a material for medical collimators, isotope containers, and cancer therapy radioactive source containers.
