Description

An electric Carbolite gas tight industrial oven with a nitrogen purge set up. This 300°C oven features a roof mounted air circulation fan, stainless steel interior with 7 shelf runner positions.

Nitrogen

Nitrogen is typically referred to as inert when it is to be used at temperatures below 1800°C. It displaces oxygen, so is ideal for use in applications where oxidation is undesirable.

Nitrogen is not a "noble" gas and, under specific conditions, can react with oxygen to form gases such as nitric oxide (NO) and nitrogen dioxide (NO₂). These are collectively referred to as NOx gases (the "x" referring to the number of oxygen atoms present in the compound).

Where an inert atmosphere is required, nitrogen is a cheaper alternative to argon, provided that the material being heat treated (or any subsequent by-products) will not react with it.

Advantages of Modified Atmospheres

Heat treating materials within a modified atmosphere ensures a controlled working environment, increased repeatability, and more consistent results.

Depending on the type of material processed and environment required, modified atmospheres can be used to either protect samples from oxidation during heat treatment, or actively promote reactions. Inert gases, such as argon (Ar) or nitrogen (N₂.), and reducing gases such as hydrogen (H₂), are used to prevent oxidation, whilst oxidising gases, such as oxygen (O₂.) or nitrous oxide (N₂O), are used to promote oxidation.

The choice of atmosphere is entirely dependent on the requirements of the heat treatment process.
