What Is a Tungsten Plastic Gamma Ray Protective Screen?

Tungsten plastic gamma ray protective screen is a kind of protective equipment made of tungsten polymer material, used to shield gamma rays and protect people and equipment from its radiation hazards.

The manufacturing process of tungsten plastic gamma-ray protective screens usually involves mixing tungsten powder with an organic polymer solution, and then going through process steps such as stirring, drying, and hot pressing to form a substance similar to plastic. This tungsten polymer material has the characteristics of high density, high strength, high temperature resistance and good electrical insulation properties, and can effectively shield gamma rays.

The advantages of tungsten plastic gamma ray protective screens include:

  1. High shielding effect: Tungsten polymer material has high density and high atomic number, which can effectively absorb and scatter gamma rays and reduce radiation dose. Compared with traditional lead shielding materials, tungsten polymer has higher shielding effect and lighter weight, making it easier to transport and install.
  2. Strong plasticity: Tungsten polymer material has good plasticity and processing performance, and can be processed into screens of various shapes and sizes according to needs to adapt to different application scenarios.
  3. High temperature resistance: Tungsten polymer materials have good high temperature resistance and can maintain stable performance at higher temperatures. They are suitable for radiation protection in high temperature environments.
  4. Corrosion resistance: Tungsten polymer materials have certain corrosion resistance to chemical substances such as acids, alkalis, and salts. They can resist corrosion by various chemical substances and maintain the stability of their performance.
  5. Electrical insulation properties: Tungsten polymer materials have good electrical insulation properties and can resist the impact of high voltage and strong current. They are suitable for radiation protection of electronic equipment and electrical equipment.
  6. Environmental protection and safety: Tungsten polymer materials are non-toxic, harmless, non-radioactive, and safe for the environment and human body. In contrast, traditional lead shielding materials have certain toxicity and radioactive hazards, and special attention must be paid to safety protection when using them.
  7. Cost-effectiveness: Although the manufacturing cost of tungsten polymer is relatively high, due to its excellent performance and plasticity, it can replace expensive metal materials in applications in some specific fields, thereby reducing costs and improving economic benefits.

Tungsten plastic gamma ray protective screens have a wide range of applications, mainly including the medical field, nuclear industry, scientific research and security fields. In the medical field, tungsten plastic gamma ray protective screens can be used for radiation protection in imaging diagnostic equipment and radiotherapy equipment; in the nuclear industry, tungsten plastic gamma ray protective screens can be used in nuclear reactors, nuclear fuel cycle facilities, etc. Radiation protection; in the field of scientific research, tungsten plastic gamma ray protective screens can be used for radiation protection of laboratory equipment and scientific instruments; in the security field, tungsten plastic gamma ray protective screens can be used for radiation monitoring in airports, ports and other places and checking the radiation protection of equipment.

In general, as a new type of radiation protection equipment, tungsten plastic gamma ray protective screens have the advantages of excellent shielding effect, strong plasticity, high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, electrical insulation, environmental protection and safety, and high cost-effectiveness. With the continuous improvement of people’s awareness of radiation protection and the development of related industries, the application prospects of tungsten plastic gamma ray protective screens will be broader.
