A shielding material for shielding radioactive ray and preparation method thereof. The shielding material consists of water, a cementing material, a fine aggregate material, a coarse aggregate material and an additive, wherein the fine aggregate material consists of a borosilicate glass powder and a barite sand, and the coarse aggregate material consists of a barite. A content of boron element in the borosilicate glass powder accounts for 0.5%-1% of the total weight of the shielding material. A content of barium sulfate in the barite sand and the barite accounts for 71%-75% of the total weight of the shielding material. Other contents include water, the cementing material and the additive, and a sum of contents of all components is 100% total weight of the shielding material.

Shielding material for shielding radioactive ray and preparation method thereof

A beam shaping assembly for neutron capture therapy includes a beam inlet, a target having nuclear reaction with an incident proton beam from the beam inlet to produce neutrons forming a neutron beam, a moderator adjoining to the target, a reflector surrounding the moderator, a thermal neutron absorber adjoining to the moderator, a radiation shield arranged inside the beam shaping assembly and a beam outlet. The material of the moderator is subjected to a powder sintering process using a powder sintering device so as to change powders or a power compact into blocks. The reflector leads the neutrons deviated from the main axis back. The thermal neutron absorber is used for absorbing thermal neutrons so as to avoid overdosing in superficial normal tissue during therapy. The radiation shield is used for shielding leaking neutrons and photons so as to reduce dose of the normal tissue not exposed to irradiation.
