Description Of Tungsten Radiation Safety Machined Part

Tungsten Radiation Safety Machined Part is a commonly used radiation shielding material for radiotherapy of cancer tumors, medical imaging, and radioactive tracing. It is mainly used to manufacture collimators, syringe shielding parts, protective tanks, FDG containers, and radioisotope containers. It can not only shield harmful high-energy ionizing rays from patients undergoing examination and treatment, but also narrow the particle beam or light wave while limiting the amount of rays, so that the particle beam can accurately diagnose the patient in a specific direction. Tungsten Alloy Radiation Safety Machined Part is more environmentally friendly than lead protective equipment, and it also conforms to the manufacturing concept of sustainable development. The attenuation rate of gamma rays or beta rays is above 90%. 

Features Of Tungsten Radiation Safety Machined Part

Excellent radiation shielding performance: Tungsten alloy has a very high density, generally between 16.5 - 18.75g/cm³, and its attenuation ability for radiation such as X-rays and gamma rays is extremely strong, comparable to traditional lead shielding materials.

High strength and good toughness: Tungsten alloy has a high tensile strength (700 - 1000MPa), and has good plasticity and toughness, and is not easy to break or deform due to collision and vibration.

Corrosion resistance and thermal stability: Tungsten alloy has good corrosion resistance to a variety of corrosive media, and has a small thermal expansion coefficient and a large thermal conductivity. It can maintain dimensional stability in an environment with large temperature changes.

Strong machinability: Tungsten alloy can be processed into parts of complex shapes through processes such as powder metallurgy to meet the needs of different application scenarios.

Applications Of Tungsten Radiation Safety Machined Part

Shielding components used for radiotherapy equipment, such as shielding layers of radiation source storage and transmission systems, PET-CT radiation source cabins, radioactive drug storage devices, etc., can also be made into small shielding covers for mobile radiotherapy equipment and bedside treatment scenarios. As a shielding material for nuclear reactors, it effectively blocks radiation such as gamma rays, ensuring the safety of workers and the environment.
