Barium Sulfate Board Radiation Protection

Top shielding performance: high-purity barium sulfate filling (≥90%), 0.5mm lead equivalent protection, blocking X/γ rays up to 99%, the first choice for medical and industrial radiation rooms.

Lightweight and strong: The specific gravity is only 1/3 of the traditional lead plate, the compressive strength is ≥18MPa, the wall is not easy to crack, and the building load is reduced.

Convenient co nstruction: It can be sawed and nailed, directly replacing cement plastering, saving 30% of the construction period, and no lead pollution hazards.

Environmental protection and durability: Class A fireproof, acid and alkali corrosion resistance, service life > 30 years, guarding the safety of personnel and the environment.

Product Details

Specially developed for radiation protection, barium sulfate board is produced from refined ultra-fine natural baryte blended with high-performance polymers under compression. It offers excellent ray shielding effect, reliable physical and chemical stability and simple construction, making it a widely adopted solution for medical facilities, industrial sites and research laboratories.

Superior Radiation Shielding Performance 

Boasting a density of ≥3.2 g/cm³ and the high atomic number of barium, these panels provide remarkable blocking capability for X-rays and gamma rays, far exceeding the protective effect of standard concrete.

Customizable Lead Equivalent:Various thickness options (typically 2mm to 20mm) allow flexible adjustment to reach specified lead equivalents (e.g., 0.5mmPb, 1.0mmPb, 2.0mmPb). This accommodates diverse shielding demands across diagnostic radiology (DR, CT), radiotherapy, industrial non-destructive testing and other scenarios with different radiation protection levels.

Outstanding Physical Characteristics

Robust structure & weather durability: These panels feature a tight, dense composition with strong compressive strength and impact resistance. They resist cracking and deformation, and adapt steadily to a wide range of indoor and outdoor environments.

Fire safety performance: The material generally complies with Class A or B1 fire resistance standards, effectively boosting overall building fire safety.

Safe & eco-friendly composition: The raw materials are non-toxic, harmless and non-radioactive. No hazardous volatile compounds are emitted during use, fully satisfying green building material standards.

Simple Construction & Installation

Easy processing: The panels can be cut, drilled and fastened just like regular wood boards, allowing flexible on-site sizing to fit specific project requirements.

Quick installation: They can be directly mounted onto walls and ceilings, or fabricated into protective doors and windows using screws or professional adhesives. This significantly shortens construction cycles and cuts total project costs.

Space-efficient design: For equivalent radiation shielding performance, these panels are much slimmer than bulky traditional cement-barium sand walls, helping conserve interior building space.
