High Lead Content & High Light Transmittance Radiation Shielding Glass

Radiation shielding glass, also known as lead glass or X-ray glass, is a special glass that can protect against the radioactive rays (X-rays, γ-rays, etc.), in which the lead content is between 60% and 70%. Higher content of lead means that the glass has better protection. Radioactive rays are often used for various tests and treatments. Ordinary glass is not effective in absorbing radioactive rays, so a large number of elements with higher atomic number (such as lead and bismuth) must be added into the glass to increase its absorption capacity. It is mainly used in the medical industry to reduce the impact of radioactive rays on humans and the environment.
