Industrial gases for the aerospace & aircraft industry
Nitrogen
Essential to the aerospace & aircraft industry, nitrogen is used in high Reynolds number wind tunnels, heat treating furnaces and autoclaves to help create incredibly strong but lightweight materials. Nitrogen is also used as an assist gas for laser cutting applications.
Hydrogen
Used as fuel, industrial hydrogen fuels rockets and powers life-support systems and computers in space environments. It is also used for metal sintering and annealing.
Oxygen
Liquid oxygen has been used in many bipropellant vehicles since the 1940's.
Argon
Argon is a versatile industrial gas used in the production of light bulbs and lasers, and in welding applications. As an inert gas, it is also commonly used in vacuum carburizing and other heat treating processes.
Helium
Helium is used as a lift gas, in both the liquid and gas form, to purge and pressurize liquid hydrogen fuel systems and detect leaks.
