Optical Properties: Refractive Index nD 1.76, Transmission ≥ 85% at 550nm through 5mm path.
Chemical Properties: Lead (Pb) 48%, Barium (Ba) 15%.
Mechanical Properties: Density 4.8 g/cm³, Knoop Hardness 440 kg/mm², Young’s Modulus 62.7 GPa, Poisson’s Ratio 0.23, Coefficient of Thermal Expansion 81.8 x10-7/°C.

Radiation Shielding Glass Types:

Lead Glass: Provides X-ray protection with varying thickness and lead equivalence depending on X-ray tube voltage.
RD 30: Used in mammography workstations, meets IEC 61331-2 and DIN 6841 standards, can be thermally toughened for safety.

Protection Levels:

Minimum lead equivalence varies with glass thickness and X-ray tube voltage, ranging from 1.0 mm to 5.4 mm Pb.
RD 30 offers ≥0.5 mm Pb protection for tube voltages up to 120 kV.

Installation Guidelines:

Remove protective film before installation without using sharp objects.
Follow construction regulations for radiation protection, ensuring sufficient overlapping of shielding glass.

Eye Protection:

X-ray protective glasses available in two levels: FG 50 (front=0.50/side=0.50 mm Pb) and FG 75 (front=0.75/side=0.50 mm Pb).
Lens transmit rate not less than 80%, frames available in red, blue, and green.

Catalog excerpts

X-RAY PROTECTION Radiation Shielding Glass Radiation shielding glasses are used where transparent protection against ionizing radiation is necessary. Radiation shielding glass is used in X-ray rooms, operating theatres, radiation therapy rooms, dental clinics, laboratories, and for material testing. Applications include observation windows and intercommunication windows, door glazings, panoramic glazings, mobile protection walls, prot ective panels for check-up systems. Minimum Lead Equivalence (mm) for stated X-ray tube voltage N/A = X-ray transmission below level of detection Material is supplied as polished plates cut to customer requirements. Max. size is 2,80 x 1,40 m (for 7,0-8,5 mm glass), other glass types max. cut to sizes between 2,00 x 1,00 m and 2,44 x 1,22 m, details on request. Glasses are packed in wooden crates.
