   OK, this does sound like a potentially serious problem :-)   
      
   However, I'm not sure that this is something that can not   
   be handled.  Using a boron- oder cadmium containing open-cell   
   structure (foam, or a lattice, or parallel pipes, or...)   
   should do the trick.   
      
   Plastics reinforced with boron fibers seem like a good   
   material at first glance.
