Polymer tungsten is a new lead-free material for production of medical radiation shielding product. According to the experts, the polymer tungsten is also called tungsten resin or tungsten rubber, and is an excellent new radiation protection material to replace traditional toxic lead and lead alloy shielding materials. This new tungsten resin radiation shielding material has a good shielding effect on X-rays and gamma ray, so that it can protect medical personnel.

Polymer tungsten retains the excellent properties of tungsten such as radiation shielding performance and environmental protection. It also solves the difficulty of tungsten forming processing. It means that the limitation of the processing shape of radiation shields is eliminated. In addition, it combines the good flexibility and processing properties of high molecular polymers. So, it becomes an alternative to lead to produce medical radiation shielding products. Wherein, polymer may be one or more of plastic, rubber or thermoplastic elastomer.
