Beware of Misleading Performance Claims When Purchasing Radiation Shielding Glass!
Radiation shielding glass is widely used in medical, scientific research, and electronic equipment protection fields. However, there are misleading performance claims in the market. Pay special attention to the following points when purchasing:
1. Misconception: Radiation shielding glass = ordinary coated glass
Truth: Real radiation shielding glass contains a high-lead or metal oxide layer that effectively shields X-rays and γ-rays. Some merchants use ordinary coated glass as a substitute, with extremely low actual protection capabilities.
2. Misconception: The lower the lead content, the better
Truth: The core of radiation shielding glass lies in its lead content (PbO). The higher the lead content, the better the shielding effect. Regular products will indicate the lead equivalent (mmPb), such as 2mmPb, 3mmPb. When purchasing, you need to check whether its protection level meets national or industry standards (such as GB/T 51334-2019).
3. Misconception: All radiation shielding glass is impact-resistant
Truth: High-lead glass is more brittle than ordinary glass. Some inferior products do not have a safety protection layer and are easily broken. Composite protective layers or tempered radiation shielding glass should be chosen to improve safety.
Tips to Avoid Pitfalls:
- Check the test report to ensure it meets industry standards and pay attention to the lead equivalent (mmPb).
- Choose reputable manufacturers to avoid purchasing products with only coatings but no actual protective effect.
- If impact resistance is required, choose multilayer composite or tempered radiation shielding glass to enhance safety.
Choose carefully to avoid wasting money and not getting the real protective effect!
