As a new lead-free X-ray radiation protection, polymer tungsten apron is expected to replace traditional lead apron. That is because lead is a toxic shielding material and its radiation shielding performance is not so good as tungsten alloy. It means that tungsten apron is lightweight to place less burden on doctors.

Polymer tungsten apron is made using natural rubber emulsion and tungsten powder as raw materials through special processing technology. Such a shielding apron is easy to bend with flexibility, thereby reducing fatigue. It is non-slip and tactile sensitive. Also, it has the advantages of excellent radiation shielding performance, solvent resistance, and smooth surface without burrs. Such a polymer tungsten apron is often applied to surgical operations to protect medical staff from unnecessary radiation. It can be recycled, for saving resources and protecting the environment. In a word, lead-free X-ray radiation protection is the future of X-ray radiation protection. And lead-free polymer tungsten apron is the future of shielding apron.
