Shieldings for Neutron Guides
Borated Aluminium | LCB | Housings with Integrated Shielding
For our AluBor, we melt and mix pure Aluminium and Boroncarbid (up to 10% wt). Then we cast it into sizes of 100 x 300 x 1000 mm³. Under vacuum, Boron loaded rubber and PE creates neutron eating dust after some years of operation. AluBor remains clean. It is clearly the better choice.
Our LCB shieldings, made of a radiation and vacuum hard epoxy, highly filled with boroncarbide. We developed a vacuum mold injection technique to produce 10.000 pieces per year. The accuracy is 0.02 mm.
Boron based (LCB) shielding of neutron guides, inside the vacuum housings. Inside of round or rectangular vacuum housings, we implement a 3-6 mm thick layer of LCB.
