JC237 Boron-Silicone is a fire and heat resistant field-castable neutron shielding material.It is silicone elastomer-based and has a high hydrogen content.
At temperatures up to 400 °F (204.4 °C), it will retain almost 90% of its initial hydrogen for extended periods.The hydrogen content of JC237 is 67% of that found in water and contains 1% boron for thermal neutron attenuation.
JC237 is available in a variety of shapes and sizes.It has a hard rubber-like consistency that will minimize any impact due to secondary missile formation and is self-extinguishing.
