Radioisotopes

Headquartered in Grand Island, NY, the world leader of Alpha Ionization solutions continues to evolve its offerings and expand its global reach. In the last year, NRD, LLC has successfully diversified its product offerings while broadening its global footprint across the continents.

NRD has been producing Radioisotopes for decades, providing solutions for critical applications where static elimination is key to safety, security, and productivity. Our company offers sealed standard and custom radioactive sources in many sizes and activities. We are ready to assist customers with their specific size and activity requirements or help them with creating a new design for their specific application.

Promoting Safety, Security & Productivity for Our Customers

Our radioactive sources offered are americium 241, nickel 63, and polonium 210.

Am-241

NRD offers both standard source and custom source solutions for applications utilizing Am-241. Custom sources are cut to fit your specific dimensions.

Ni-63

We offer custom source solutions for customers with applications using Ni-63 sources. Custom sources are cut to fit your specific dimensions.

Po-210

NRD offers both standard source and custom source solutions for applications utilizing Po-210. Custom sources are cut to fit your specific dimensions.

Polonium-210 is the only source we offer that comes in liquid form.

Fields & Applications

When you’re responsible for tools that detect substances as sensitive and critical as chemicals, drugs, and smoke, accuracy is of the utmost importance. NRD provides the most sophisticated detection methodology using nickel 63, americium 241, and polonium 210 foils that allow radioactive isotopes to react with the isotopes in the environment to give you exactly the information you need.

Radioisotopes fields and applications

Smoke Detection

In the field of smoke detection, a slight inaccuracy can mean the difference between life and death. NRD provides the most sophisticated method of detection using Am-241 foils that react with isotopes in the environment, offering one of the most accurate options available.

AI/Security

NRD manufactures radioactive sources for applications such as Random Number Generation to your specification. Beta emission is random and triggers a sensor randomly.

Gas Chromatography

NRD is a radioisotope manufacturer of sealed sources for various applications, Gas Chromatography being one of them. Polonium 210, Americium 241, and Nickel 63 are used to help separate, identify, and quantify sample mixtures with reliable results.

Ion Mobility Spectroscopy

NRD is a radioisotope manufacturer of sealed sources for various applications, Ion Mobility Spectrometry being one of them. Polonium 210, americium 241, and nickel 63 are used in this analytical method involving both ionizing a sample and analysis of the ions formed to help separate, identify, and quantify sample mixtures with reliable results. The ions produced are separated by their different velocities through a drift gas in an electric field.

NRD’s ionization sources are well suited for analytical IMS detection especially when fast detection in the field to identify toxic chemicals or chemical warfare agents is urgent. The advantages of using NRD’s radioactive sources include; no need for power, not limited by strict lifetime constraints, and very stable. IMS is used extensively by customs, border authorities, military, and security. This application is also used frequently for explosives detection.

Electron Capture Detectors

NRD also offers a comprehensive repair and replacement service for Electron Capture Detector source materials where we are able to service, test, clean, repair and/or replace foils made of nickel sources.
