Global Secondary Neutron Source Materials Market Growth 2025-2031

The global Secondary Neutron Source Materials market size is predicted to grow from US$ 136 million in 2025 to US$ 199 million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.5% from 2025 to 2031.

Secondary neutron source materials are materials used to maintain chain reactions in nuclear reactors. They maintain the fission process of nuclear fuel by absorbing primary neutrons produced in the reactor and then releasing secondary neutrons. Common secondary neutron source materials include californium-252, radium-beryllium (Ra-Be), plutonium-beryllium (Pu-Be), lithium-tritium (Li-T), cobalt-60, and metal compounds represented by antimony-beryllium (Sb-Be). These materials can produce secondary neutrons through specific nuclear reactions under the irradiation of primary neutrons, ensuring the stable operation of the reactor at low power or startup stages.
