Tungsten Alloy Shielding Door Applied for Medical Electron Linear Accelerator Room

Tungsten alloy shielding door has many unique excellent properties, such as high density, high strength, good radiation absorption performance, corrosion resistance, easy cutting processing, and environmental protection, etc., so it is suitable for applying to medical electron linear accelerator room to shield the X-rays and neutron rays, which are generated when the accelerator is working.

According to the experts, when high-energy rays are emitted from medical linear accelerators, especially when high-energy X-ray beams directly hit the target, neutrons are generated due to photonuclear reactions, and neutrons are emitted in all directions. As a result, the neutron radiation level in the radiotherapy treatment room is high, which cannot be ignored. In this regard, the medical workers should pay attention to the induced radiation after the accelerator is shut down to protect their health. In addition, it is more important to strengthen the neutron shielding of the door of the radiotherapy treatment room. And the tungsten alloy is considered to be the most suitable radiation shielding material for producing radiation protective door of the medical electron linear accelerator room.
