The tungsten alloy ring shielding is widely applied in the following fields:
Medical Industry:
- Used in radiotherapy equipment (such as linear accelerators and gamma knives) as collimators or shielding rings to protect healthy tissues from radiation.
- In nuclear medicine, used as shielding components for radioactive isotope containers (e.g., Tc-99m, I-131).
- Radiation protection in PET/CT scanning equipment.
Nuclear Industry:
- Shielding components in nuclear reactors or nuclear fuel transport containers to prevent radiation leakage.
- Protective rings for radioactive waste storage containers.
Industrial Nondestructive Testing: Shielding components in X-ray or γ-ray inspection equipment to ensure operator safety.
Aerospace: Used in satellites or spacecraft to shield against cosmic radiation, protecting electronic components.
Scientific Research and Laboratories: Used in high-energy physics experiments for radiation protection in particle accelerators or detectors.
