Tungsten Alloy Shielding Part Applied for Medical Linear Accelerator

Tungsten alloy shielding part is more suitable for application of medical linear accelerator than lead shielding part to shield X-rays and neutron rays generated during the operation of the accelerator. That is because tungsten alloy is a new type of radiation shielding material with high density and high ray shielding performance. The density of tungsten alloy is 1.5 times that of lead. Also, tungsten alloy is environmentally friendly and pollution-free. While lead does harms to human body and pollutes the environment as it is toxic.

Medical linear accelerator is the main device of radiation therapy, and its pollution to the environment mainly comes from X-rays, neutron rays and ozone (O3) generated when the linear accelerator is running. Wherein, X-rays and neutron rays have strong penetrating power and can endanger human health; An increase in O3 concentration can pollute the quality of the atmospheric environment and endanger public health. Therefore, tungsten alloy shielding part must be used to shield radiation pollution. At the same time, certain measures must be taken to reduce the concentration of O3 emissions to protect the environment from O3 pollution.
