For decades, the medical field has seen incredible advances in technology – from new diagnostic capabilities to improved treatments that have saved countless lives. One of these impressive solutions is radiopaque markers – small devices used to diagnose and treat a variety of conditions, ranging from cardiovascular problems to cancer. Not only do they help […]
Silicon nitride ceramic plungers are widely used in some demanding industrial occasions, including: Chemical processing equipment Used in pumps and valves that handle corrosive chemicals, the chemical stability and heat resistance of the plunger rod ensure the reliability and safety of the equipment. Medical equipment In medical equipment where high-temperature sterilization and chemical sterilization are […]
Nitinol is a new type of smart material, which can restore its original shape at a specific temperature. Generally speaking, this characteristic occurs in a high temperature environment. Its superelastic effect, high resistance characteristics, elastic modulus variability at different temperatures and self-recovery function are not available in general metal materials. With the continuous innovation of […]
Tantalum is a reactive and refractory metal. The periodic table shows it between reactive metals (titanium, zirconium, and hafnium) and refractory metals (molybdenum and tungsten). Tantalum and its sister element niobium are similar to these two elements in many ways, but also have many differences. Tantalum reacts with carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, and hydrogen, reactions that […]
Tantalum is the third most refractory metal after tungsten and rhenium, with a melting point of 2980℃. In addition, tantalum has a series of excellent properties such as low vapor pressure, good cold workability, high chemical stability, strong resistance to liquid metal corrosion, and large dielectric constant. Surface oxide film. Therefore, tantalum and tantalum wire […]
Stents using nitinol wire or nitinol tube are being widely used. The method of treating vascular stenosis is to support the blood vessels from the inside by placing stents to obtain sufficient blood flow. Nitinol stents can also be used to treat the trachea, esophagus, large intestine and bile duct that have narrowed due to […]
Alumina tubes can also be used as industrial ceramic sheaths, ceramic ceramic plunger tubes. Its excellent wear resistance, corrosion resistance, and high-temperature resistance make it play an important role in industrial production. They are usually used in chemical, mining, electric power, and other fields to transport corrosive media, high-temperature liquids, etc. to protect equipment from […]
Overview of molybdenum applications The application of molybdenum in the steel industry is the most important, accounting for about 80% of the total molybdenum consumption, followed by the chemical industry, accounting for about 10%. In addition, molybdenum is also used in electrical and electronic technology, medicine and agriculture, accounting for about 10% of the total […]
The shielding performance of high-density tungsten alloys refers to the ability of alloy materials to prevent radiation such as gamma rays, X-rays and beta rays from penetrating. Tungsten alloy are widely used in the medical and nuclear fields due to their excellent shielding performance. They can be used to make collimators, syringes, shielding funnels, shielding […]
Do you ever feel like the medical devices we rely on to help cure and prevent illnesses are not getting enough respect or attention? While most of us never take a second glance at them, they perform an incredibly vital role in improving our overall health. A closer look reveals that these small instruments have […]
