Radiation Shielding Glass
SCHOTT Radiation Shielding Glass
RD50®
Due to its Lead Oxide content of ≥65%, RD50 provides radiation protection by absorbing ionizing Gamma and X-Rays
Excellent internal transmission
High quality fire polished surface finish
More scratch resistant than acrylic
Much thinner than acrylic with same effect
We hold standard sheets in stock that can be cut to your required dimensions.
​
Available in standard thicknesses ranging from 6.0-23.0mm.
​
Increased thickness requirements for higher lead equivalence can be obtained through laminating multiple sheets.

These specifically developed Radiation Shielding Glasses provide high shielding capability and resistance against ionizing irradiation for applications in Nuclear Energy Production and Nuclear Waste Treatment (high long-term light transmittance and discharge resistance).
​
RS 253 G18 and RS 323 G19 are doped with Cerium Dioxide to prevent browning caused by high-energy radiation-induced ionization.
