Abstract (en)

[origin: ES8303792A1] Containers for the transportation and/or storage of radioactive materials, particularly irradiated fuel elements needing a shielding for keeping back the radioactive rays. Previously known shieldings cannot be adjusted optimally to the activity of the material being transported. A good adjustment can be attained by applying the shielding entirely or partially as metal casing on the container.
