Borated Polyethylene - Borated HDPE Sheet
Borated HDPE (High density polyethylene) is a product specially designed for nuclear shielding applications. The material employs 5% Boron by weight to shield neutrons in a variety of applications including high intensity X-rays, cancer treatment facilities, hospitals, nuclear submarines and nuclear power plants. Using this material as your shielding will be easier to install, maintain and use than the traditional lead lined products. While using a Polyethylene product may seem unusual, it performs as good or better than lead weighing many times as much. Borated HDPE is also lower in cost than most lead materials.
ADVANTAGES
Lower cost than lead
Lighter weight than lead
Replaces lead in nuclear shielding applications
Standard is 5% boron by weight – HDPE base material
Can be certified to Mil-P-23536 A Type B (1/2%, 1%, or 2% Boron by weight)
Mil-P-23536 certified material is inspected per Mil-I-45208 A
