Tungsten polymers are being introduced as an effective lead alternative in a variety of applications for which lead has traditionally been used. This push for alternatives is due to the threat that lead poses to the environment and to human…
Radiation Shielding: Materials Useful In X-Ray Shielding
Radiation shielding is an essential feature to our health especially when discussing radiation exposure. Radiation shielding is the method of reducing the power and effects of ionizing radiation by introducing a material that helps to shield or block the harmful…
Frangible Lead-Free Ammunition
Lead is a multi-purpose metal. It forms a major ingredient in various products ranging from toys to bullets. Demand for lead is usually high given its abundance in supply and its low price. However, this advantage does not make the…
All that you need to know about different radiation shielding materials
Radiation is a serious safetyconcern in many work environments such as atomic power plants, facilities with commercial or medical x-ray systems, radioisotope tasks, and a variety of other working sectors. Controlling radiation and eliminating the risks it poses to worker…
Different radiation shielding materials and the techniques involved
Here’s some brief information about the different types of radiation shielding materials used and the techniques involved: Gamma and X-ray Shielding In most situations, high-density components are more effective than low-density ones for avoiding or reducing the concentration of radiation.…
Need for Controlling Noise and Vibration Dampening in Industrial Equipment
Industrial equipment in operational condition can generate significant amounts of vibration. Though these vibrations cannot be eliminated, they need to be controlled, or dampened, as failure to do so can lead to many problems that affect a machine’s performance and…
High Density Material- Reshaping present part designs and revolutionizing the future
Designing the perfect part is something that all designers strive for, but also something that is usually exclusive to sketchbooks and 3D software modeling. When it comes to actually producing a part, designers are forced to face the limitations of…
Completely Nontoxic, Lead-free Radiation Shielding from X-ray, Gamma Ray and Neutron Sources
Radiation has become part and parcel of our life. Our bodies are constantly exposed to radiation due to ubiquitous mobile devices and other technologies. Though a limited amount of radiation is tolerable, when it comes to radiations such as X-Ray,…
