INGECID has developed and continues to develop different concretes that improve radiological properties, mainly for use in the nuclear world.
Among the capabilities INGECID's activities in this area include the following:
- Concrete design, including with special aggregates and additions.
- Evaluation and enhancement of the effect of temperature and different environmental conditions
- Evaluation and improvement of physical, mechanical and chemical properties
- Laboratory attenuation tests
- Radiological calculations for the evaluation of shielding effect
- Consulting and evaluation of concretes developed for different purposes.
Among the success stories in different projects, the following stand out:
- Mortars with improved shielding properties to optimize the storage capacity of drums
- Concrete with high hydrogen and boron content for improved neutron shielding
- Ionizing radiation protection concrete
- Attenuation concretes with optimized mechanical and physical properties
- High density and lower cost concretes
- Development of control and maintenance plans for special concrete.
- Evaluation and improvement of concretes used for radiological protection
