2. Radiation Protection Products carries borated polyethylene in the following sheet types:
Inustrial Grade I (purple, 5%* Boron by Weight)
Graded III (red, 2% * Boron by Weight)
Grade II (yellow, 1 %* Boron by Weight)
Virgin Polyethylene (natural color)
3. Different types of radiation make up most radioactive fields. Borated polyethylene is designed to mitigate the following types of radiation:
Fast Neutrons
Thermal Neutrons
Primary Gamma Rays
Secondary Gamma Rays
