Oxygen
Oxygen is a very reactive gas, supports combustion, and chemically combines with practically all the known elements except the inert gases — argon, helium, neon, etc.
Applications
- Steel manufacturing, metal forming & finishing
- Gas welding, cutting
- Furnace atmospheres and heat treating
- Medical therapy
- Water and sewage treatment
Nitrogen
Nitrogen’s natural state is an inert gas with a strong, triple-bonded atom. Extreme amounts of energy are generated from breaking this bond, making it helpful as an explosive, propellant, for strengthening materials, and more.
Applications
- Shield and Blanketing gas
- Heat treating and metals manufacturing atmosphere
- Medical use
- Food and beverage preservative
- Chemical processes, chemical manufacturing
Custom Gas Mixtures also available
