Product details

ABOSN Radiation Shielding boron loaded uhmwpe sheets was specially designed for nuclear shielding applications,and is used in a variety of applications including high intensity X-rays, cancer treatment facilities, nuclear submarines, and nuclear power plants.
30% Boron by weight to shield neutrons, are boron loaded PE-(U)HMW grades. The high hydrogen content of PE (U)HMW makes it very suitable for slowing down fast neutrons to lower energy thermal (slow) neutrons, which are then absorbed by the added boron compound.

Key Features of Borated Polyethylene:

• Available with 1%, 2% and 5% boron content (by weight) or virgin formulas.

• Made from the finest polymers available.

• High cross-section for consistent neutron attenuation.

• Durable over a wide temperature range.

• Custom sheets, blocks and slabs also available.

• Available finishing options, including custom cutting into any shape or part.

Benefits of Borated Polyethylene:

• Reduce exposure to harmful neutron radiation

• Light-weight; easy to handle and install

• Easily fabricated using standard woodworking tools

• Cost-effective
