Lead Loaded boron polyethylene combines lead & boron in polyethylene providing an effective shield against mixed neutron/gamma fields. The hydrogen in polyethylene will thermalize fast neutrons. The boron captures thermal neutrons & suppresses induced gamma rays. The lead provides shielding against primary gamma rays also. Lead Loaded boron polyethylene is available in slabs, bricks, cylinders, rods, and tubes of different sizes and can be manufactured into custom molds to create application specific shielding forms. They are available with varying concentrations of Lead & Boron.

Features :

• Excellent Shielding material for neutron & gamma rays
• Stable in vacuum & Used over wide temperature ranges
• Can be easily handled and installed by non-specialized personnel
• Can be molded like spheres, tubing, any cross section profiles and parts as per your drawings & requirements

Applications :

• Making Shielding doors
• Nuclear Spectroscopy
• Interlock shielding blocks
• Nuclear Therapy
• Neutron Instrumentation
• Nuclear Power Plant
• Beam Lines
• Transport Storages & Packing of radioactive materials, etc
• male-female inserts to ensure radiation leakage-free system
• used for criticality control where an effective thermal neutron poison is required

Pure Polyethylene is often used as a moderator to slow fast neutrons to thermal energies. To be most effective in these applications it is important to maximize the hydrogen content and minimize impurities that absorb neutrons. It is in high purity & Ultra high molecular weight polyethylene. Polyethylene is available in slabs, bricks, cylinders, rods, and tubes of different sizes and can be manufactured into custom molds to create application specific shielding forms.

Features :

• Shielding grade pure polyethylene
• Excellent neutron moderator material
• High hydrogen content
• Can be readily machined into complex shapes for applications involving reactor physics, activation analysis, or isotopic neutron sources

Applications :

• Making Shielding doors
• Nuclear Spectroscopy
• Interlock shielding blocks
• Nuclear Therapy
• Neutron Instrumentation
• Nuclear Power Plant
• Beam Lines
• Transport Storages & Packing of radioactive materials, etc.
• Research Labs & Hospitals

Boron polyethylene is also available with self-extinguishing property. It extinguishes by itself in absence of flame. Boron Polyethylene with its high hydrogen & boron content makes it a very useful shielding material in areas of Low & Intermediate Neutron Flux. The Boron attenuates thermal neutrons and reduces the level of capture gamma rays, while the high hydrogen content thermalizes fast neutron. The above products are available with boron concentration in range of 1% to 30%.

Features :

• Excellent neutron shielding material with self-extinguishing property
• High hydrogen & boron content
• Lightweight material can be machined & shaped with standard tools
• Available in slabs, bricks, cylinders, rods, and tubes of different sizes
• Can be manufactured into custom molds to create application specific shielding forms

Applications :

• Making Shielding doors
• Nuclear Spectroscopy, Interlock shielding blocks
• Nuclear Therapy, Neutron Instrumentation
• Nuclear Power Plant
• Beam Lines
• Transport Storages & Packing of radioactive materials, etc.
• Male-female inserts to ensure radiation leakage-free system
• Used for criticality control where an effective thermal neutron poison is required
