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?

Transfer Lines
Transfer lines may in some real sense be thought of as the cryogenic fluid analogy of current leads. While current leads carry electrical power to where it’s required in a cryogenic system, transfer lines do the same with cryogenic fluids. Transfer lines range in complexity from very simple U-tubes containing...
Zero Boiloff
Zero Boil Off cryostats are those that contain liquid cryogens but are designed to eliminate or vastly reduce the boil off of the liquid. These cryostats combine some of the advantages of Cryogen-Free systems (e.g. ease of use and long operational lifetime) with the advantages associated with a reservoir of liquid...
Cryomodule
Cryomodule is a term that is most commonly used to refer to cryostats that contain superconducting radio frequency (SRF) cavities. Such cavities are used to accelerate charged particle beams and are a major component of modern particle accelerators. Using the term cryomodule to refer to cryostats containing SRF cavities appears...

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...
Eliminate negative effects of grinder burn on gear teeth?
Can you tell me if it is possible to eliminate the negative affects of grinder burn on gear teeth with the use of cryogenics?
Information about a process called “cryogenically stretch-formed ss”
I am remembering in the 1970’s when astronauts were walking on the moon and carried oxygen in 300 ss bottles inside LN2 tanks which were filled and pressurized.
Small cryo-gun for our health service clinic

Additional sealing materials besides PTFE or glass filled PTFE
I am an engineer looking to improve our solenoid valve sealing on cryogenic medias. I was wondering if you knew of materials other then PTFE or glass filled PTFE that could be used for sealing.
