Hydriding / Dehydriding
Hydriding / Dehydriding
Reclamation of High Value Scrap
The cost and use of certain high-end metal alloys in the aerospace, automotive, and medical industry requires manufacturers and end-users to find solutions for scrap recycling.聽 聽蘑菇视频手机版 has developed optimal vacuum processing programs designed to convert scrap materials back to reusable powders.聽 The process involves two separate heat treat cycles.聽 The 蘑菇视频手机版 hydride cycle provides the customer with a crushable metal hydride.聽 Once the customer crushes the material, 蘑菇视频手机版 utilizes a vacuum process to remove the hydrogen resulting in a slightly agglomerated powder (HDH powders) for use in new product lines.
