Characterization of aluminum and boron carbide based additive manufactured material for thermal neutron shielding

We characterize the suitability of two additive manufactured materials for use in shielding thermal neutrons for neutron scattering instrumentation. We compare two different boron based additive manufactured masks to a traditionally manufactured boron nitride mask in a real-use case scenario. The fi...
