The radioprotective isotopes of tungsten alloys are different radionuclides of the same element
The radionuclides of tungsten alloys have the same number of protons, but the number of neutrons is different. In nature, natural isotopes are called natural isotopes and synthetic isotopes are called artificial isotopes. Among them, radioactive isotopes are called radioisotopes. Isotopes in radiation protection of tungsten alloys refer to radioisotopes. Each element has radioisotopes. Some radioisotopes exist in nature, while others are artificially produced by bombarding stable nuclei with nuclear particles (such as protons, a particles, or neutrons). Radioisotopes are unstable and undergo radioactive decay. When radioactive decay occurs, α-ray, β-ray, γ-ray and electron capture are emitted spontaneously. These rays have a certain radiation effect on human body, which is harmful to human health to a certain extent. Therefore, tungsten alloy shields can be used to shield these radiation. Generally, the rate of radiation decay is not affected by the temperature, pressure, electromagnetic field and the state of the elements, but only depends on the time. Radioisotopes are widely used. It can be used in radiography to display the interior of an object in a photograph, or to determine the age of palaeontology and to monitor and control the thickness of materials during production. When used as tracers, radioisotopes can be used in agriculture, industry, medicine, animal husbandry and biology. For example, using radioisotope tracers to study cholesterol biosynthesis and metabolism, to study the structural changes of metals in different smelting processes, to diagnose diseases, to determine mechanical wear, To study the effects of growth stimulating hormone on the metabolism and function of crops, to understand the ways and effects of fertilization, to analyze the life cycle, migration rule, mating and foraging habits of animals. Therefore, radioactive isotope emission radiation is inevitable. Radiation is inevitable but can reduce the harm caused by radiation. Tungsten alloy shielding is a good choice. Tungsten alloy shields are devices used to shield radioactive materials. Can be used in medical industry, nuclear industry, scientific research and other fields, such as radioisotope radiation shielding. There are many kinds of tungsten alloy shielding components, such as tungsten alloy shielding vessel, tungsten alloy shielding tank, tungsten alloy shielding shell and so on. Because the radiation shielding efficiency of metal materials increases with the increase of metal density, and tungsten alloy has very high density, so tungsten alloy shielding parts have very good shielding benefits. Moreover, compared with traditional shielding materials (such as lead), tungsten alloys are more environmentally friendly and non-toxic, so they do not pollute the environment or endanger human health.
