While engaging in manufacturing processes, research, and technological developments, it is common to utilize industrial gases. These gases are used in diverse applications such as chemical synthesis and building semiconductors. These cylinders are built in a way to store and transport the gases in a specialized manner keeping safety handling in mind which is why there are gas cylinders designed specifically for one purpose only. It is necessary to know the different types of gas and cylinders for industrial purposes.
Types of Industrial Gases Offered by HCM
HCM offers a variety of industrial gases that are of high quality and have varying properties and uses:
Hydrogen Chloride (HCl)
Hydrochloric acid is a vapor gas that is most commonly used in the synthesis of plastics, rubber, and even pharmaceuticals. Not only in medicine but it is also widely used in metal processing and acts as a catalyst for chemical reactions.
Ethylene (C2H4)
Ethylene is a crucial elementary product in the chemical industry serving as a pre cursor to polyethylene and other polymer. Not only that, but it is also used for ripening fruits and is a known plant hormone.
Tri-Silicon & Tetra-Silicon
These sophisticated materials play a key role in the manufacture of semiconductors and thin films. They are utilized in deposition methods to produce electronic devices with superior quality and accuracy.
Phosphine Mixed Gas
Phosphine mixed gas is used in synthesizing specialty chemicals and in semiconductor manufacturing as a dopant. The mixture's ratio is critical because it affects the properties of the end product’s electronics.
Trimethylaluminum (TMA)
High-purity trimethylaluminum is used in advanced semiconductors and electronics. It is used to deposit aluminum films on silicon wafers.
Diborane (B2H6) Mixed Gas
Diborane mixed gas solutions are semiconductor manufacture and advanced material processing. They are used to form boron-doped layers in electronic devices.
Arsane (AsH3)
Arsane gas is used in the development of specialty chemicals and semiconductors. It's application ranges from catalysts in organic compounds syntheses to doping agents in metal semiconductor transistors. High purity is strictly required for electronic components.
Helium Gas
Ultra-pure helium gas is needed for high-performance MRI machines and in semiconductor fabrication. Its unique physical and chemical properties make it applicable for cooling as well as for carrier gas.
Propane (C3H8)
Premium-quality propane is a popular fuel choice because it is cleaner and more efficient than other energy sources. This hydrocarbon is commonly used in heating, cooking, and in vehicles and power generators.
Different Categories and Uses of Cylinder for Industrial Gases
Choosing the appropriate cylinder is as important as the gas. Clyinders are designed with consideration of the physical and chemical properties of the gas which will be contained within:
Standard Cylinders
These are simple cylinders with no frills that are used to contain gases that do not need heightened levels of pressure or unique materials. Propane and ethylene are some common examples.
High Pressure Cylinders
High pressure, contain them! These type of clyinders are used for gases such as hydrogen chloride, and phosphine mixed gases, and are designed to endure high levels of pressure.
Specialty Gas Cylinders
Trimethylaluminum and arsane are some examples of high pure gases that can only be utilized with specialty gas clyinders. These clyinders are used to controlled purity of the gas to a high degree and composition.
It is important to know the different types of industrial gases and their corresponding cylinders to maintain the desired performance level, safety, and efficiency in different industrial works. HCM's wide assortment of gases and clyinders meets the unique requirements of industries and is a stepping stone towards technology improvement and social development.
