Description Of Tungsten Vial Storage Containers

Tungsten Vial Storage Containers are made of tungsten alloy (tungsten nickel iron or tungsten nickel-copper), which is very suitable for storing and decaying radionuclides. Before injecting the nuclide into the patient, physiological saline needs to be added to dilute and decay it to achieve the radiation dose required for the imaging examination. Tungsten Vial Storage Containers generally have two designs: sliding cover and rotating cover and are equipped with lead glass observation windows. The lead window provides medical staff with a good observation angle of the liquid in the container, making it convenient to pay attention to the changes in the nuclide. The Tungsten Vial Storage Containers provided by our company have the advantages of high density, good shielding effect (strong shielding performance for X-rays, gamma rays, and beta rays), wear resistance, corrosion resistance, oxidation resistance, impact resistance, durability, etc., and can accept customized services.

Features Of Tungsten Vial Storage Containers

Shielding effectiveness and density.

Tungsten can achieve densities of 16.5-19.0 g/cm³, thus making its capacity for shielding radioactive α, β, and γ rays exceptionally effective. It can greatly minimize radioactive material leakage. Unlike lead shielding containers, tungsten containers do not pose radioactive contamination hazards and offer higher levels of overall containment.

Non-toxic and non-environmentally harmful

Tungsten will not cause secondary environmental pollution and thus can be disposed of without the concern of environmental contamination. Tungsten containers are non-toxic and can be reused and recycled.

Corrosion and high temperatures

Tungsten boasts the highest melting point of any pure metal and thus has a melting point of 3422℃. With such temperatures, tungsten can maintain its structural integrity.

Applications Of Tungsten Vial Storage Containers

Used to store radioactive nuclides, such as 60 cobalt, 137 cesium, etc. These nuclides are important radiation sources in radiotherapy, and tungsten bottle storage containers can safely store and transport these substances.
