Due to the excellent shielding against electromagnetic radiation tungsten based materials are typically used for collimators and shielding components in medical imaging diagnostics. However, the conventional manufacturing of pure tungsten sheet and foil material is quite expensive because of high temperature sintering and thermo-mechanical treatment. A cost and material efficient manufacturing for tungsten based material has been developed. The new technology uses dedicated mixtures of tungsten heavy alloy powder and organic binder, which are formed and sintered to full-metallic semi-finished products.
Due to the tungsten content of ≥ 90 wt.% the material exhibits excellent X-ray absorption. Medical tungsten radiation shield is a kind of tungsten alloy shield used to shield various radiation sources. It is used for storing radioactive materials in collimators, tungsten series test containers, medical linear accelerators, nuclear technology applications, and Co60 radiation shielding.
