Why choose high density tungsten alloy as radiation shielding?

High density tungsten alloy has high density, high hardness, high strength, high temperature resistance, and good processing performance. Under the same thickness conditions, the radiation shielding ability of high density tungsten alloy is more than 1.7 times that of lead. The stronger the radiation, the more obvious the difference in radiation shielding ability between the two materials.
Tungsten alloy collimator is a component of the radiation head of a medical accelerator. In addition to using primary and secondary collimators, it is equipped with an electron beam limiter below the radiation head to collimate electron radiation. Its main function is to limit the range of electron radiation, in order to protect normal tissues outside the target area and prevent critical organs from being irradiated. A tungsten alloy collimator is a device that reduces particle beams or light waves. Reduction means that the particle rays are directed in a specific direction, allowing only rays parallel to the collimator to pass through, or a device that narrows the spatial cross-section beam to limit the amount of rays.

Composition of tungsten alloy products

The composition of tungsten alloy collimators is generally 90-97% W Ni Fe or 90-97% W Ni Cu alloy, with a density of 16.85-18.85g/cm3 and a sintering temperature of around 1500 ° C. The processing performance is better after sintering heat treatment.
