The invention discloses a
neutron protective body plug and a material thereof, and the plug is composed of front and rear blocks (3,4,8,9), left and right blocks (1,2,6,7) and middle blocks (5,10), wherein the front and the rear blocks (3,4,8,9), the left and the right blocks (1,2,6,7) and the middle blocks (5,10) are arranged on an upper layer and a lower layer and are symmetrical in shape respectively, the external circles of the front and the rear blocks and the left and the right blocks of the upper layer and the lower layer are all arc curved surfaces, and the middle blocks are of a quadrangular-
prism shape; and a cylindrical structure is formed after the blocks are combined, and grooves with same widths but different depths are respectively processed on the arc curved surfaces of the front and the rear blocks of the upper layer and the lower layer so as to ensure that the grooves are rightly engaged after the upper layer and the lower layer are combined. The material of the
neutron protective body plug comprises the following components: 30-40% of
polyethylene, 10-20% of
chlorinated polyethylene, 6-14% of
polyvinyl alcohol, 25-35% of
aluminium hydroxide and 5-10% of
colemanite; and the
neutron protective body plug comprises the elementary components with the contents as follows: not less than 9.0% of
aluminium, not less than 0.85% of
boron, not less than 1.10% of
calcium, not less than 40% of carbon, not less than 3.5% of
chlorine, not less than 7.5% of
hydrogen, not less than 25% of
oxygen and not less than 1.0% of
impurity. The neutron protective body plug can effectively absorb and shield
radiation generated by a neutron-
ray, and has stability and fine
mechanical strength under thermal
neutron radiation.
