This study focuses on achieving a higher uniformity of 10 MeV electron treatment of cylindrical products by including aluminum modifiers of different thicknesses in the irradiation scheme. It was simulated the irradiation of cylindrical water phantom by beams of accelerated electrons with an energy of 10 MeV from two opposite sides using GEANT 4. During the simulation, aluminum plates-modifiers of different thicknesses of 1, 1.5 and 2 mm were added between the cylindrical phantom and the beam output in order to assess dose uniformity inside the phantom. It was found that the higher the thickness of aluminum plates, the more uniformity could be achieved. While 1 mm and 1.5 mm plates enable the efficiency ratio of 30 % and 45 %, respectively, a 2 mm modifier increases the uniformity of irradiation up to 60 %. In this way, computer modeling proves that inserting beam plates-modifiers between irradiated samples and beam output for irradiation from two opposite sides allows to considerably increase the uniformity of sample irradiation with complex geometry.
