  2. Annealing (materials science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annealing_(materials_science)

    The high temperature of annealing may result in oxidation of the metal's surface, resulting in scale. If scale must be avoided, annealing is carried out in a special atmosphere, such as with endothermic gas (a mixture of carbon monoxide, hydrogen gas, and nitrogen gas). Annealing is also done in forming gas, a mixture of hydrogen and nitrogen.

  3. Copper tubing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copper_tubing

    Soft (or ductile) copper tubing can be bent easily to travel around obstacles in the path of the tubing. While the work hardening of the drawing process used to size the tubing makes the copper hard or rigid, it is carefully annealed to make it soft again; it is, therefore, more expensive to produce than non-annealed, rigid copper tubing.

  4. Annealing by short circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annealing_by_short_circuit

    Annealing by short circuit is a method of efficiently annealing copper wire which employs a controlled electrical short circuit. It can be advantageous because it does not require a temperature -regulated furnace like other methods of annealing.

  5. Whisker (metallurgy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whisker_(metallurgy)

    Many techniques are used to mitigate the problem, including changes to the annealing process (heating and cooling), the addition of elements like copper and nickel, and the inclusion of conformal coatings. [2] Traditionally, lead has been added to slow down whisker growth in tin-based solders.

  6. Brazing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brazing

    For copper, silver, nickel, copper-phosphorus and copper-zinc filler metals. For brazing copper, brass, low-nickel alloys, Monel, medium and high carbon steels. Hydrogen AWS type 7. Strong deoxidizer, highly thermally conductive. Can be used for copper brazing and annealing steel. May cause hydrogen embrittlement to some alloys. For copper ...

  7. Compression seal fitting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compression_seal_fitting

    In mechanical engineering, a compression seal fitting, also known as a sealing gland, is intended to seal some type of element (probe, wire, conductor, pipe, tube, fiber-optic cable, etc.) when the element must pass through a pressure or environmental boundary. [1] A compression seal fitting may serve several purposes:

  8. Copper foil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copper_foil

    Rolled Annealed (RA) Copper Foil; Rolled Annealed copper foil is produced through a rolling and annealing process, as described earlier. It offers good flexibility and is commonly used in flexible printed circuit boards (PCBs) and other applications where flexibility is required. High-Temperature Rolled Annealed (HTRA) Copper Foil

  9. Fire-tube boiler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fire-tube_boiler

    Typically an annual inspection, this would require the removal and check of external fittings, such as the injectors, safety valves and pressure gauge. High-pressure copper pipework can suffer from work hardening in use and become dangerously brittle: it may be necessary to treat these by annealing before refitting. A hydraulic pressure test on ...
