Shielding components made from tungsten, molybdenum and the tungsten heavy alloy Densimet® only allow radiation to pass where it is actually needed. During the generation of X-ray radiation our materials guarantee that environmental radiation exposure is kept to an absolute minimum. Plansee produces flat shielding components using an innovative, near net shape process. The result: The foils and sheets have a particularly isotrope and homogeneous microstructure free from any characteristic orientation. Possible products and applications are: — Shielding components for X-ray tubes — Shutter blades for computer tomographs — Shielding elements for detectors — Isotope containers for brachytherapy — Shielding elements for linear accelerators — Shieldings for oil and gas drilling

Plansee collimators are made of tungsten heavy metal alloys (Densimet® alloys). Due to the high density of the material, collimators perfectly shield from x-rays and gamma rays and therefore protect the healthy tissue during radiotherapy. Densimet® tungsten alloys are distinguished by their particularly high density. Combined with their ability to absorb radiation as well as their outstanding mechanical properties and machinability. Particular material properties: — high density of 17.0 to 18.8g/cm³ — better machinability compared to pure tungsten — high Young’s modulus and very good mechanical properties — high absorption capacity for X-rays and gamma rays — harmless to the health and environment

Aluminum is used for PVD metallization in thin-film transistors for TFT-LCD for displays. Aluminum sputtering targets are highly pure and therefore ensure best conductivity of the material. The aluminum targets have a particularly fine-grained microstructure. This ensures that you benefit from uniform erosion and a low susceptibility to particle formation throughout the sputtering process. Material properties: Density [g/cm3]: > 2,70 Purity [%] > 99,999 (5N) Hardness [HV1]: 16 Thermal conductivity [W/(m·K)]: 238

Tungsten layers are components of the thin-film transistors used in TFT-LCD screens. They are used wherever large screen formats, particularly high image definition and optimized contrasts are needed. But tungsten is also used as a diffusion barrier and a conductive connector in the microelectronics industry. Using the world's largest hot rolling mill for refractory metals, Plansee is able to produce the largest tungsten sputtering target on earth. The benefit to you of large formats: The coating process is more stable and the deposited layers are of higher quality. Thanks to the special forming processes Plansee's tungsten sputtering targets have a density of almost 100 %. As a result, your process benefits from a particularly high level of conductivity and time savings due to the excellent sputtering speeds.
