Tungsten Alloy for Efficient Radiation Protection

 

The tungsten alloy reliably shields against X-rays and gamma radiation. With its new production process and great expertise in 
 
the materials field, PLANSEE has made the manufacture of shielding components particularly cost-effective.
 
Whether in the world of medical or industrial X-ray technology, radiotherapy or nuclear power stations: Wherever high-energy 
radiation is used, it is vital to protect people against it.The denser the material, the better able it is to protect from 
radiation. That is why heavy elements absorb X-rays and gamma radiation particularly well. Lead is still the most frequently 
used shielding material. Because it is a very soft material, it is mostly used only in combination with support structures made 
of steel.
 
Lead is a toxic material that is harmful to the environment and humans. The onerous recycling process makes lead expensive 
despite the low initial procurement costs. Many enterprises are therefore looking for a suitable alternative for providing reliable radiation protection.

Tungsten Fishing Bead

Fishing beads can be as an attractor or be a component of the rig when you are fishing.

Fishing beads can be made from plastic, brass, lead, tungsten and so on. And they come in many different colors.There are also luminous beads made of plastic which glow in low light when the water you are fishing has low visibility to attract fish.

However, tungsten alloy fishing bead becomes more and more popular because of its good properties. Tungsten fishing bead is made from tungsten alloy, so some peple call tungsten alloy fishing bead as tungsten fishing bead.

What is Tungsten Alloy

Tungsten Alloys, which contain elements such as nickel, copper and iron, produce a host of alloys which have engineering properties similar to steel, are relatively easy to machine, and can be plated or painted to enhance their corrosion protection. These alloys are approximately 50% denser than lead resulting in a higher concentration of mass in a limited area.

Advantages of Tungsten Heavy Alloy’s Shielding

 

Use not subject to NRC, EPA, or special OSHA regulations
High radiation absorption (superior to lead)
Low toxicity-safer than lead or depleted uranium: simplified life cycle 
Easily machined into complex geometries
Hardness, strength, and ductility make for good durability
Good corrosion resistance

Detailed Introduction toTungsten Radiation Shielding

 

Tungsten alloy is ideal for shielding against X rays and gamma radiation. The very high density of tungsten shielding allows a reduction in the physical size of shielding components, without compromising their rigidity or the effectiveness of the shielding characteristics.
Tungsten heavy alloy shielding is used in applications such as Radioactive source containers, Gamma radiography shields, Shielding block, X-ray collimators, Nuclear shielding wall etc.
