This is a flexible, heat resistant, ozone resistant, lightweight EPR based polymer containing variable percentage of Boron. Boron has a very high macroscopic cross-section for thermal neutrons. Therefore the material has an extremely good attenuation factor for thermal neutrons. Hence, it provides an excellent shield against thermal neutrons. This product is also stable in vacuum.

Flex Boron sheet can easily be handled and installed by non-specialized personnel. It is readily applied to concrete or other wall materials using standard mounting technique. This flexible material can be cut and shaped using an ordinary knife and scissors.
