Polyethylene Shielding

Polyethylene Shielding is a type of neutron shielding material composed primarily of hydrogen-rich polyethylene polymer that attenuates neutron radiation through elastic scattering and thermalization, distinguished by its high hydrogen density and cost-effectiveness in shielding applications for particle accelerators.
