Activation Foils | Shieldwerx

Neutron Activation Foils
SWX-500 series

Shieldwerx offers a wide variety of thermal, resonance, and threshold detectors. For over 50 years we have supplied thousands of customers with these materials to measure and quantify neutron energy spectrums. Neutron activation foils have broad applications both in basic and applied research. They are used in such widely diverse fields as physics, radiochemistry, and medicine. These fields use Shieldwerx Activation Foils and Flux Wires.

Shieldwerx Foils are highly reliable detectors fabricated of the highest purity materials under strict quality control. Each box contains 10 close-tolerance foils, which are cleaned, coded, and accurately weighed to within 0.0001g. A material Data Sheet giving a spectrographic analysis and coded weights for all foils is included with each box. An Activation Foil Manual is available upon request with each foil order. Deliveries of foils are generally from stock.

Combination Foils Kits
SWX-1550 series

Combination Foil Kits contain Activation Foils carefully selected to provide coverage of different neutron energy ranges. These kits include Fast Neutron Foils, Thermal/Resonance Foils, and Broad Spectrum Foils. These combination kits are selected assortments of Shieldwerx Activation Foils. Each foil is weighed to +0.0001g. All foils are 0.5" (12.7mm) diameter. Kits include a spectrographic analysis of each material and an Activation Foil Manual. In addition to the listed foils, each Combination Kit contains 10 Cadmium Cover Sets for eliminating thermal neutrons.

Flux Wires
SWX-600 series

Shieldwerx Flux Wires are available for spectral or flux-mapping in research or power reactors. Small diameter, high purity wires can be inserted directly into the limited space in the core of reactor to obtain this valuable information.

Shieldwerx offers a broad selection of high purity Flux Wires. A spectrographic analysis of impurities is furnished with each wire. Shieldwerx also offers Cadmium Tubing for shielding the wires in order to measure epithermal neutron fluxes. Flux Wires are available in standard packages of 10 feet. Other quantities are available upon request.
