Description of Tungsten Alloy Shielding

Why Use Tungsten Alloy Shielding

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), “ionizing radiation is a form of energy released by atoms in the form of electromagnetic waves (gamma or X-rays) or particles (neutrons, β or α).”
Tungsten Alloy Shielding (WHA) has a high density, almost twice that of lead. This high-density material can attenuate electromagnetic radiation of specific wavelengths. Tungsten alloy is an opaque material, so it is not affected by optical radiation. This characteristic extends to the energy spectrum beyond the visible light spectrum, such as ionizing radiation. Additionally, tungsten alloy shielding is non-toxic and harmless to the human body, making it more widely used in modern medical and detection systems.

Excellent Performance of Tungsten Alloy Shielding

Our produced tungsten alloy shielding has excellent shielding performance. They also have high mechanical strength, consistent heat resistance, corrosion resistance, and high density.

Our tungsten alloy products perform well in radiation therapy and diagnostic radiology. They resist radiation and ensure that radioactive substances reach the desired location accurately, essential for combating tumors and providing reliable support for the recovery process.

Different Application Scene of Tungsten Alloy Shielding

In diagnostic radiology (PET), close-range radiation therapy, and medical isotope production (e.g., molybdenum-99), our products ensure safe handling, storage, and radiation shielding during transportation to the point of use. Reliability and safety are top priorities for transportation companies, medical professionals, and patients.

In the security field, our products support hazard prevention at airports, ports, and borders, protecting society. Gamma and X-ray radiation are used in these areas to screen l age, containers, freight trains, and motor vehicles. Because a large amount of radiation is used, effective radiation shielding to provide the best possible protection for passengers, staff, and other stakeholders is crucial.

Our tungsten alloy shielding products also play a crucial role in the industrial sector. They provide reliable radiation protection for maintaining and repairing nuclear reactors or pipelines supplying oil and gas.
