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.
