Description of High Density Radiation Shielding Tungsten Vial Pot

In modern nuclear medicine, industrial testing, and scientific research, the safe storage and transportation of radioactive materials is crucial. Our high-density radiation shielding tungsten bottles and cans are made of high-quality tungsten alloy and provide you with the most reliable radiation protection solution, ensuring operator safety and a pollution-free environment.

Features of High Density Radiation Shielding Tungsten Vial Pot

Manufactured using a tungsten-dense solid (average density of 18.5-19.3 g/cm³), this material sharply outpaces lead (11.3 g/cm³) and regular steel (7.8 g/cm³) in shielding mass. By achieving identical attenuation of gamma and X-ray threats, the standard bottle wall can be trimmed by 30% to 50%, yielding a marked drop in packed volume and overall mass.

Attenuation of gamma photons (notably Cs-137 and Co-60) and X-ray photons between 50 keV and 3 MeV remains above 99%, thereby ensuring leakage remains imperceptible under standard diagnostic monitoring conditions.

The alloy’s intrinsic compressive yield of 1,000 megapascals or more, coupled with resistance to brittle fracture, guarantees geometric stability during the protracted lifecycle demanded by high-activity holding. Strategic alloying and post-processing refine grain size to deter premature yield.

Moreover, this composition imposes zero toxic liability. Compliance with the RoHS Directive, U.S. NRC mandates, and the Chinese GB 11806 specification collectively demonstrates the material’s safety both in packaging and during transport of elevated-level radioactive sources.

Applications of High Density Radiation Shielding Tungsten Vial Pot

• Nuclear Medicine: After packaging 99mTc, store it temporarily for 30 minutes.

• Industrial NDT: After the Ir-192 source is finished, it is directly placed in a tank, and the on-site dosimeter is immediately reset to zero.

• University Laboratory: Cs-137 sources are used for teaching. Students take turns operating them, one tank per person, for convenience and safety.
