Neutron-resistant materials

Protection against neutron radiation requires specialised materials for its thermalization and capture. Lemer Pax has developed a complete range of dedicated solutions, including neutrophage materials and Novashield® HE, specifically designed to effectively stop neutron radiation.

These innovative materials are adapted to the specific needs of the nuclear sector, whether for fixed installations or on-board systems.

Thanks to our different filled matrices and shapes, we can guarantee a significant reduction in neutron exposure, meeting the most stringent radiation protection requirements.

Nuclear fusion, the example of ITER

ITER (International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor, also meaning "path" in Latin) is a scientific programme and challenge. Its aim is to carry out controlled nuclear fusion experiments at unprecedented levels of power and duration, and to understand the dynamics involved. Due to its size, the ITER tokamak will be the most powerful tokamak ever built. To achieve this objective, it will be necessary to create neutron-absorbing materials in the mortar family: lightweight and hydrogen-rich.
