Why do I need Inert Gas Fusion Analysis?

The three non-metals Oxygen (O), Nitrogen (N) and Hydrogen (H) determine the quality, service life and mechanical properties of all metallic materials. Unlike metallic alloy components, the amount of O, N and H sometimes changes considerably along the entire process chain, from the production of raw materials to the completion of the finished product. Similar applies to argon inclusions, introduced at trace level during metal powder production by atomization that will remain in the final product.
Acquiring kinetic information about diffusible hydrogen and its damaging mechanisms are further examples with actual backgrounds like development of new generations of high strengths steels, materials suitable for hydrogen storage or biomedical implants.

Applications

G8 GALILEO Applications

Powder Metallurgy and Additive Manufacturing

Metal powders used in additive manufacturing and other powder metallurgical processes are high purity materials with strictly defined particle properties. Their large specific surface makes them susceptible to “aging” by oxidation/moisture along the production chain with oxygen and hydrogen content dominating the yield rate and product quality. The ready-to-use G6 LEONARDO addresses the needs of such emerging industrial applications.

Glass & Ceramics

From industry refractory materials to high performance ceramics in electronics or in metal cutting, refractory oxides, nitrides and carbides have a wide usage. The unique properties of glass and ceramics are influenced in fundamental ways by the level of oxygen, nitrogen and hydrogen present in the process or in the final product. With SampleCare™, FusionControl and its robustness, the G6 LEONARDO is an excellent tool for the fast analysis of raw materials, intermediates and final products.

Welding and allied Processes

Bruker’s unique G8 GALILEO IR is supported by ISO 3690 and AWS A4.3 and enables a rapid assessment of diffusible hydrogen levels introduced during welding. Because of its speed, it enables pre-welding experiments on test samples, helping the welding industry to avoid costly failures.

Thermal Desorption Mass Spectrometry

Thermal Desorption Mass Spectroscopy (TDMS) with temperature ramps provides kinetic information like the trapping-energy of hydrogen within a metal structure. Terms like diffusible, weakly or strongly trapped, and chemically bound hydrogen can be directly correlated with the supplied activation energy. Bruker’s unique G8 GALILEO MS is capable to analyze hydrogen or isotopes like deuterium at concentrations of a few ng/g. This enables precise mechanism investigations needed for the development of new alloy generations or alloys suitable for hydrogen storage.
