I need radiation shielding for my new research facility. What
kind of shielding is most effective and easily available?
Lead is one of the most effective and widely available
materials for radiation protection. Lead provides effective radiation shielding
against gamma rays and x-rays because of its high molecular density, high
atomic number and high level of stability. Lead can be used for installing
radiation shielding in medical facilities, as well as research facilities in
industries, universities or in the military.
Can anyone suggest the name of a supplier who can supply lead containers with thicknesses ranging from a fraction of an inch to several feet?
ReplyDelete"Medi-RayTM can accommodate a tremendous range of lead container requirements from 1/16” walls to those several feet in thickness and ranging from grams to tons in overall weight.
