Tungsten Alloy Shielding is Better Than Lead

Tungsten alloy shielding is more an more popular for radiation protection. Generally speaking, the absorption rate of X-rays and gamma radiation is directly proportional to the density of the shielding material, as tungsten alloy has a high density but small capacity, tungsten is a suitable for radiation shielding. Since tungsten alloy is denser than lead, these alloy can be up to one and a half times more effective than lead, and provide extremely efficient protection from radiation sources, especially in applications where space is limited.
