Helium INDUSTRIAL HELIUM GAS Interesting Facts & Information About Helium (HE) Helium is a highly specialized product. It’s chemically inert and non-flammable, with high thermal conductivity, low molecular weight and size, and the lowest boiling point known. Helium is often extracted from the earth crust where it is available in huge amounts. During the drilling process while extracting other natural gases or oils, Helium also comes out of the earth’s crest and then it is further separated and converted into liquid Helium through fraction distillation technique from natural gas. Further liquid Helium is converted in helium gas to store in cylinders for industrial uses. Helium is found largely in the minerals of thorium and uranium. Helium gas is used in wide applications in aerospace, automotive, healthcare, electronics and other related industries. Application of Helium (HE) USES OF HELIUM GAS AND LIQUID HELIUM (HE) BY INDUSTRY Diving Breathing Mixtures In combination with oxygen, helium is used in diving to help eliminate nitrogen narcosis, reduce breathing resistance at depth, and shorten decompression stops. Welding Processing Helium’s inert properties at arc temperatures make it an ideal gas for welding materials with high heat conductivity such as aluminum, stainless steel, copper and magnesium alloys. Healthcare Services Helium is used to achieve cryogenic temperatures of -451 degrees required for superconducting magnets in MRIs and NMRs, allowing the capture of high-resolution images of internal organs. Leak Detection (HE) diffuses through solids 3x faster than air, so it is also used for leak detection purposes in high-vacuum and high-pressure equipment.

Helium INDUSTRIAL HELIUM GAS Interesting Facts & Information About Helium (He) Helium (He) is a colourless, odourless, non-toxic, non-corrosive and non-combustible gas. It is mainly sourced from natural gas wells. This valuable gas is in short supply the world over, which is why many applications incorporate recovery and recycling systems. With the lowest boiling point of any gas (4.2 Kelvin or –269° Celsius), liquid helium is the coldest matter on Earth. This makes it ideal as a cryogenic agent for a number of cutting-edge medical and physics applications. For instance, it is used to cool superconductive magnetic coils in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) medical equipment. In fact, helium is indispensable across a wide range of industries. For example, it is used to pressurise rocket fuel; create inert atmospheres for welding, heat treatment and epitaxial crystal growth; purge semiconductor atmospheres; calibrate analytical instruments; inflate airplane tyres and airbags; test for leaks; inflate large balloons for meteorological studies; and fill electronic tubes in neon signs. Depending on your volume requirements, we can supply helium in special insulated ISO containers, tube trailers, dewars, multi-cylinder packs (MCPs), regular cylinders or portable cylinders.

Hydrogen INDUSTRIAL HYDROGEN GAS Interesting Facts & Information About Hydrogen (H₂) Hydrogen (H2) is an odourless, colourless and tasteless gas that is produced through natural gas steam reforming or the electrolysis of water. Lighter than air, it burns with an invisible, clean (carbon-free and soot-free) flame. It is the only fuel gas that does not contain any carbon atoms. H2 has the highest thermal conductivity of all gases. Combined with oxygen, the hydrogen flame reaches a temperature of 2834°C. It is often mixed with argon to create a range of argon/hydrogen shielding gases for TIG and plasma welding. These shielding gas mixtures are primarily used for welding austenitic stainless steels and some nickel alloys. Hydrogen can also be used with argon in a range of gas mixtures for plasma-cutting (stainless steel and aluminium mainly). In addition, it can be combined with oxygen for underwater flame-cutting. Deeper cutting applications require higher fuel and oxygen pressures. Hydrogen is ideal here as it is supplied at higher pressures than other fuel gases. In the glass industry, hydrogen is used to form the rim on glasses. Hydrogen has a vast application spectrum beyond its value as a fuel gas. It is used in the production of carbon steels, special metals and semiconductors. In the electronics industry, it is widely employed as a reducing agent and as a carrier gas. High-purity hydrogen is also used as a carrier gas in gas chromatography. Other processes that rely on hydrogen include the hydrogenation of vegetable and animal oils to produce margarine and other fats, hydro-treatment of petroleum products, desulphurisation of fuels, heat treatment of metals and leak testing. Various petrochemical and chemical processes also employ hydrogen. It powers flames and torches in industry and laboratories. Although used as a rocket fuel in liquid form, it is perhaps better known these days as a green source of power for fuel-cell vehicles. Other applications include HF/DF chemical lasers, solid physics research, bubble chambers in nuclear plants, the synthesis of ammonia and the cooling of turbogenerators in electrical power plants.
