Grinding HNBR slab into 32-mesh powder
We have a small quantity to prove the feasibility of using HNBR slab ground into a small powder about 32 mesh or finer. Can you suggest an organization that can do this small quantity (about 1 or 2 lbs) and production quantities of a few hundred pounds?
Domestic companies that could cryogenically treat a tube?
Please identify some domestic companies that could cryogenically treat a tube.
Company to supply metallic recoated FBG sensor
I am studying FBG sensors for cryogenic temperature measurements. I am looking for a company that can supply me a metallic recoated FBG sensor. Please let me know if anybody has a contact.
Standards for cryogenic valves
Do you know where I can get some documents of testing specification or US standards for cryogenic valves (DN 250)? Or could you give me some suggestion for that?

Helium II
Helium II (He II) refers to the second liquid phase of the most abundant helium isotope (4He). Helium II is also referred to as superfluid helium. Helium II occurs once the temperature of the liquid helium drops below 2.17K. The phase transition between the first liquid phase of Helium (referred...

Bose-Einstein Condensate
A Bose-Einstein condensate, first proposed in 1925 by Albert Einstein based on work done by Satyendra Nath Bose (the same Bose from whom the term boson is derived), is a super-cold state of matter in which almost all of the individual atoms have “condensed” down to the lowest possible quantum...
Cold Technology for Pest Control
While it does not reach temperatures cold enough to be called cryogenic, carbon dioxide snow is at the heart of a new way of dealing with unwanted pests. It utilizes a quick freezing process that takes advantage of the properties of carbon dioxide snow and has a number of benefits...
Cryogenic Finishing
The following 3 articles discuss the uses and procedures of various type of cryogenic finishing. 1) By Robin A. Rhodes, Cryogenic Institute of New England, Inc. rrhodes@nitrofreeze.com Cryogenic Deflashing is employed to remove undesired residual mold flash that remains on molded parts after they are removed or ejected from the...
Resistance to embrittlement at low temperatures
Could anyone advise me about resistance to embrittlement at low temperatures for the alloys in subject, i.e. does the CF10M perform like the CF8M in the same cryogenic service (-215F)? Amara Maafi Amara.Maafi@bg-group.com
Need help with temperature dependent model
I am a fourth-year student at New Zealand University. My name is Xu Ke. I have a project to generate a temperature dependent model for inductor, capacitor and diode by using PLECS. PLECS is software which acts as a toolbox for MATLAB. In my models, the temperature is very low,...
In what form is water available in LN2?
Does anybody know in what form water is available in LN2? There probably is a block of ice in the bottom of the tank. But as water comes in many shapes, I can imagine snow or crystals floating free in the LN2. When water is available in LN2, could small...
Separating gases using cryogenics
We are looking for some consulting engineers who understand how to separate gases using cryogenics. We have a new process which takes biomass and converts it to 5 gases and we need to separate these gases into their pure forms. Thanks for your help. Malcolm Draper Energy Research Group LLC...
