Borated Polyethylene sheet
Boron contain :1%-40% Lead Boron :5%-80%
Borated Polyethylene sheets are designed for high-efficiency neutron shielding, ideal for extreme environments in nuclear, medical, and research applications. With boron content, these sheets provide superior neutron absorption compared to lower borated grades, offering robust protection where it’s most critical. Custom sizes and thicknesses are available to meet specific project requirements, ensuring precise fitting and enhanced performance. For reliable shielding under challenging conditions, choose Skyguards’s Borated Polyethylene.
Advantages
-
Superior Neutron Absorption
With boron content, this material provides the highest level of neutron shielding, making it ideal for extreme radiation environments where maximum protection is required.
-
Enhanced Density for Efficient Shielding
The high boron content elevates material density, allowing efficient neutron absorption in limited-space applications where shielding efficacy is critical.
-
Engineered for High-Risk Environments
Designed for reactor cores, containment structures, and defense facilities, this material ensures precise, unwavering protection in high-stakes settings.
-
Endurance in Prolonged Exposure Conditions
Built for resilience, it maintains shielding performance under continuous radiation, ensuring long-term protection and stability essential to critical operations.
-
Application
Borated polyethylene sheet is a lightweight composite shielding material loaded with boron carbide (B₄C). It moderates fast neutrons and absorbs thermal‑epithermal neutrons, widely used for neutron radiation shielding.
Nuclear power & nuclear industry
Shielding liner for spent‑fuel storage casks, radioactive waste containers, hot‑cells and nuclear auxiliary facilities.
Scientific research & particle physics
Neutron beam‑line shielding, accelerator laboratories, dark‑matter experimental bases, neutron traps and collimators.
Medical radiation facilities
Shield walls & door panels for LINAC, proton‑therapy rooms and neutron‑radiography equipment.
Security & industrial inspection
Cargo‑scanner shielding, well‑logging instruments and non‑destructive‑testing devices.
Note: Custom boron content (1%‑40% by weight), CNC‑machined blocks & components are available.
