Tungsten Polymer Can be Effective Lead Alternative

Tungsten polymers are being introduced as an effective lead alternative in a variety of applications for which lead has traditionally been used. This push for alternatives is due to the threat that lead poses to the environment and to human health. Recent studies show that the heavy usage and poor disposal of lead products for decades has caused irreversible effects to the environment and as such lead is now ranked as the second most hazardous substance by the United States government. Due to tungsten polymer has high density (13g/cc), excellent radiation attenuation properties, and environmental friendly, it is widely used to produced radiation shielding to replace lead.
