Radiation proof lead plate introduction

Radiation-proof lead panels are mainly used in a variety of radiation-related engineering, including nuclear medicine radiation protection, radiation therapy, diagnostic radiation protection, nuclear medicine isotope radiation protection, protection in interventional therapy, and industrial radiological inspection protective walls designed to block the effects of radiation.

Use of radiation-proof lead plate

Because of its high density and weight, as well as its ability to effectively block radiation such as X-rays, lead is widely used in radiation protection engineering. In general, lead equivalent or protective equivalent refers to the radiation protection effect that 1 mm thick lead plate can provide, usually in the range of 1 to 10 mm. Unlike ordinary materials, the thickness of the radiation-proof lead plate needs to be uniform, and there is no oxide impurities and bubbles. If the thickness of the lead plate is not uniform or there are bubbles, its X-ray blocking effect will be significantly reduced.
