TRENDS
Nuclear and medical radiation shielding applications require materials providing safety and protection for environment and people, exhibiting high hydrogen density and low weight at acceptable cost.
Most radiation fields are combinations of different kinds of radiation, such as fast neutrons, thermal neutrons,
primary gamma and secondary gamma rays.
Fast neutrons are most effectively shielded by materials with high hydrogen content. They are slowed to
thermal energies by collision with hydrogen atoms. Thermal neutrons can be virtually eliminated by the
presence of high thermal neutron cross-section materials such as boron. Primary gamma rays are best
shielded with lead or other high density materials. Secondary gamma rays are created as the result of the
capture of thermal neutrons by hydrogen. These capture-gamma rays can be minimized by adding boron.
