Borated Polyethylene Composition: A Detailed Analysis of Its Key Components Borated polyethylene is composed of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMW-PE) and boron carbide (B4C). To ensure sufficient boron content in the sheet, slightly more boron carbide than theoretically calculated is usually added. The following table lists typical composition ratios of borated polyethylene sheets with different

Borated Polyethylene vs Lead In today’s era of rapid technological development, radiation protection has become an important issue in many fields, especially in the medical and nuclear energy industries. Traditionally, lead has been widely used in various protective situations due to its excellent radiation shielding capabilities. However, with advancements in material science, a new type
