What are the important properties and applications of helium in industry? part2

 

 

    3.Helium application in laser cutting

  

  Laser cutting is a high-precision cutting technology commonly used to cut metallic and non-metallic materials. During the laser cutting process, a gas is used to purge the cutting area to prevent the formation of oxides and to reduce laser scatter. Helium is an ideal purge gas because it is very inert and does not chemically react with other metals and materials, ensuring high stability. In addition, helium low density, can reduce the cutting area volatiles and smoke, to ensure that the cutting work smoothly, to avoid pollution of the environment.

 

 

  4.helium in combustion analysis applications

  

  Combustion analysis is a commonly used chemical analysis method to measure the content of various elements in a sample. In combustion analysis, the sample must be heated to a high temperature so that it burns and releases various gases. These gases are collected and used for analysis. Helium can be used as a carrier gas to transfer these gases to the analytical instrument for measurement. Due to its special inertness, helium is not susceptible to any chemical reaction or change with the gases in the sample, so the accuracy of the analysis can be guaranteed and precision can be avoided.

 

 

  5.Helium in Magnetic Resonance Imaging applications

  

  MRI is a non-invasive medical diagnostic technique used to view the internal structure of the human body. In MRI, radio waves are used to stimulate the nuclei of atoms in the target being examined. These nuclei emit electromagnetic signals that can be picked up and converted into images. Helium can be used as a gas in MRI because the nuclei are very stable and can produce a very strong signal, which improves the resolution and accuracy of the image and ensures that the examination is not compromised.

  

  In summary, helium has a wide range of industrial applications. It can be used in gas quenching, laser cutting, combustion analysis, MRI and other fields, with the advantages of high stability, inertness and thermal conductivity. As technology advances and applications expand, the value of helium applications is expected to continue to grow. At the same time, helium is a scarce resource that needs to be protected, managed and used in a way that ensures its sustainable development.
