I where looking for elements that can absorpt neutrons without generating radioactive materials in order to be used in future Pulsotron reactor installations, and I found that most of them in earth are suitable. I found that could work:

C, O, Si, S, N, H

The most percentage of isotopes can receive one or two neutrons being stable, but if a neutron would be subtracted it would convert in an unstable isotope.

About that I was happy to know that silice, concrete and limestone could be used.
