Patent number: 10811156Abstract: This disclosure pertains to a gamma radiation source, including enriched Iridium-191 and Boron-11. Some embodiments may include alloying. Some embodiments may include sintering. The resulting disk, adapted for radiological sources, typically has a reduced attenuation and a reduced cost, due to the reduction in the use of Iridium-191. Substitutes for boron include aluminum, silicon, vanadium, titanium, nickel, platinum, phosphorus and/or combinations thereof.Type: GrantFiled: May 8, 2015Date of Patent: October 20, 2020Assignee: QSA GLOBAL INC.Inventors: Mark G. Shilton, Mark W. Vose

Patent number: 10141080Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an insoluble cesium mixed multimetal oxide, ceramic, glass-ceramic or glass which is intended to be a replacement for cesium chloride or similar materials used as radiation sources. Additionally, this insoluble compound could replace other insoluble lower specific activity cesium compounds used in industrial, underwater, and underground/downhole application because it would allow the use of older lower specific activity cesium stock solutions. The disclosure further provides a method for the cesium to be recovered from cesium chloride sources.Type: GrantFiled: February 11, 2015Date of Patent: November 27, 2018Assignee: QSA GLOBAL, INC.Inventors: Mark W.
