  • the neutrons are dependent on the selected neutron poison concentration, e.g. Boron concentration, and the neutron energy is absorbed to a greater or lesser extent.
  • the type, size and power of the radiation source largely determine the design, the material selection and the material arrangement of the shield.

  • the individual layers of the protective sheath formed from solids must be corrosion-resistant both to liquid and to vaporous water.
  • the solid material selected as the shielding material is predominantly coated or encapsulated with refined metals. This is particularly complex in terms of design and assembly.
  • Another disadvantage is that cavities caused by a complex structure of the radiation source cannot be used, or cannot be used completely, for shielding due to the solid shielding materials. This leads to the fact that the dimensions are particularly large due to the shielding effect to be achieved and prescribed by regulations, and such a protective jacket is particularly expensive.
