LFX-9
LFX-9 is a completely new type of radiation shielding glass that has no lead in it. 9mm thick LFX-9 has the lead equivalency of 0.5 mmPb/50,80kV.
LFX-9 is suitable for protection from relatively weak radiation, especially as a shield for mammography that requires impact safety.
X-ray Shielding Performance
X-ray Tube Voltage(kV) | X-ray Transmission(%) | Lead Equivalent(mmPb) |
---|---|---|
50 | 0.04 | 0.5 |
80 | 1.75 |
*Test results according to IEC1331-1, 1994.
The X-ray transmission of LFX-9 was measured at 30 kV as well, however, readings higher than background could not be obtained. This means that X-rays of 30 kV are perfectly shielded.
