Yellow tungsten oxide, or tungsten trioxide, is an important component in the preparation of new radiation-proof glove. According to the researchers, a new type of radiation protection material (It is lead-free to avoid lead hazard.) containing nano tungsten trioxide should be prepared at first. This new type of radiation protection material includes the following components by weight: nano tungsten trioxide: 3-10%; lanthanum trioxide: 3-10%; aluminum fluoride: 20-35%; nano bismuth trioxide: 55-73%; fullerol nanoparticles: 1-2%.

Then, this new radiation protection composite material is mixed into latex to prepare a new radiation-proof glove. The obtained radiation-proof glove ensures the softness and extensibility, thereby the staff can perform delicate operations. At the same time, the safety and protection effect can also be ensured. Such radiation-proof gloves are suitable for clinical interventional therapy, nuclear medicine diagnosis and treatment and other applications, as they can reduce the direct exposure of professional personnel to ionizing radiation.
