Product Introduction
The Barium Sulfate Radiation Protection Board is primarily composed of Barium Sulfate (BaSO₄), with Barite (heavy spar) serving as a crucial raw material. Barite is used to produce Barium Cement, Barite Mortar, and Barite Concrete. The BaSO₄ content in the board should not be less than 80%. This material is widely recognized as a highly effective radiation protection solution, especially for shielding against X-rays and gamma rays (γ-rays).

Product Features
Effective Radiation Shielding:
The Barium Sulfate Board boasts a density of about 4.5g/cm³, which is higher than lead, ensuring excellent radiation protection. It can provide equivalent or superior shielding to lead boards when applied at similar thicknesses. This makes it ideal for use in environments requiring high-level radiation protection, including medical X-ray rooms, CT rooms, and nuclear medicine facilities.
Cost-Effective Alternative:
Compared to lead-based radiation shielding materials, Barium Sulfate Boards offer a more affordable solution. The lower cost of Barium Sulfate, combined with simpler installation, makes it an economical choice. It can be easily attached to steel frame structures, saving both time and material costs. The price of Barium Sulfate boards is approximately half that of lead plates, offering significant cost savings.
Environmental Safety:
Barium Sulfate is an environmentally friendly material, and the Barium Sulfate Radiation Protection Board is completely lead-free, making it a safer choice for both the environment and human health. It does not emit harmful substances or dust and has minimal impact on the surrounding environment. Additionally, waste disposal is simple and does not cause secondary pollution, making it a sustainable option.
Fire & Moisture Resistance:
The board is designed to withstand high temperatures and moisture, ensuring durability over time. It has been successfully used in thousands of radiation protection projects across the country without experiencing breakage or quality issues. Its ability to resist fire and moisture makes it a reliable long-term investment for high-demand environments.
Easy Installation & Maintenance:
The Barium Sulfate board is versatile in installation. It can be mounted directly onto walls or installed with a steel frame system. The board is easy to saw, nail, drill, and adhere, providing flexibility in construction projects. The surface of the board does not require complex composite layers and can be directly coated with putty or latex paint, reducing labor costs and simplifying the installation process.
Product Structure
The Barium Sulfate Radiation Protection Board is composed of a carefully selected blend of Barium Sulfate, Barite, cement, rare earth elements, and plant fibers. This combination is processed using advanced slurry casting techniques, followed by high-temperature curing, to ensure strength, durability, and superior radiation shielding properties. The surface is smooth and can be easily finished, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.
Size: 1200mm x 2400mm
Thickness: 10mm / 12mm / 15mm, etc.
