Borated polyethylene plates to meet various neutron shielding needs

Borated polyethylene sheet is a lightweight, cost-effective and efficient neutron shielding material sheet, which is widely used in medical, nuclear and industrial conditions. The uniform density and its ability to attenuate and absorb neutron radiation make it an attractive polymer choice for a variety of applications. So a private hospital in the United States contacted us, hoping that we could provide radiation-proof panels.

After discussion, we decided to make UHMWPE borated polyethylene sheets. In addition to the material’s light-weight, durable, and cost-effective characteristics, the borated polyethylene sheet also significantly reduces the gamma capture dose. This polymer material can be easily manufactured; we provide CNC machining solutions according to customer specifications to meet various neutron shielding needs. Customers are very satisfied after using it.
