Boron PE Sheet / Boron-containing radiation shielding polyethylene board
Boron PE Sheet is professional neutron radiation shielding composite material. And being manufactured via high temperature and high pressure integrated molding technology, specially developed for neutron ray protection.
Our boron polyethylene panel features low weight, stable radiation resistance and even internal density. It is becoming cost-effective neutron shielding substrate for various radiation shielding projects.
Custom boron carbide (B4C) additive ratio from 0% to 80% according to customer demands. Other additives like lead powder, borax, lithium carbonate, flame retardant and anti-static agent are optional for multi-functional modification.
Neutron Shielding Mechanism
The neutron absorption performance of boron PE sheet comes from dual physical collision & capture effects:
1. Massive hydrogen atoms inside polyethylene matrix collide elastically with neutrons, slowing down neutron velocity effectively;
2. Boron element mixed evenly in the sheet has excellent neutron capture capacity, absorbing slowed neutrons thoroughly to achieve complete radiation shielding effect.
