Borotron HM030 HMW-PE shapes are enhanced with 3% elemental boron, which makes this grade suitable for shielding in nuclear and medical applications. The high hydrogen content of HMW-PE allows the material to absorb thermal neutrons, which are then absorbed by the added boron compound. For these reasons, Borotron HM030 HMW-PE components are often favored for use in nuclear waste disposal and detection system, nuclear material storage and transportation, radiation therapy environments and hot cell technology applications.
Borotron UH015 UHMW-PE shapes are enhanced with 1.5% elemental boron, making this grade a superior solution for extreme shielding in nuclear and medical applications. The high hydrogen content of UHMW-PE allows the material to absorb thermal neutrons, which are then absorbed by the added boron compound. For these reasons, Borotron UH015 UHMW-PE components are prevalent in the nuclear and medical technology industries.
