Development of materials for shielding ionizing radiation
We focus on the use of beneficial properties of special metallic materials, polymers, and advanced concretes in the design of inorganic materials for shielding against ionizing radiation, as well as on the practical application of theoretical knowledge in the development of geopolymer materials and the behavior of ionizing radiation particles. Research and testing are carried out in cooperation with ÚACH of the Czech Academy of Sciences, CV Řež, and the Department of Nuclear Reactors at FJFI CTU.
ANORGAN I – one type
A highly efficient inorganic material for shielding thermal neutrons, featuring significantly lower half-value layers than steel, concrete, or polyethylene. Non-flammable, water-resistant, and stable up to 300 °C.
ANORGAN II – 4 types
It offers high efficiency in neutron radiation moderation and absorption, as well as gamma radiation shielding, exceeding common materials such as steel and concrete.
Technology
pressing of moistened mixtures (pressure up to 10 MPa)
casting of aqueous suspensions into supplied molds
Simple manufacturing and easy handling
easy maintenance and repairability
eco-friendly disposal
non-toxic
Examples of use
Energy
Solutions for nuclear power plants, control centers and key parts of energy infrastructure where reliable, long-term radiation protection of personnel and technology is essential.
Defense
Protection of military facilities, command posts, equipment, logistics bases, and armed forces personnel, including facilities for crisis management and integrated rescue system units.
Health
Shielding for nuclear medicine, diagnostic and therapeutic facilities, sterilization workplaces, and areas for the production and storage of radiopharmaceuticals.
Industry
Safety when working with radiation sources, material inspection, handling of radioactive sources, and applications in geology, water management, archaeology, and forensic science.
Agriculture
Protection of areas used for irradiation, sterilization and pest elimination, with applications in breeding as well as veterinary diagnostics and therapy.
