Argon is a colorless, odorless inert gas that is widely used in industry and daily life. It plays a particularly prominent role in protecting the welding process and is known as the “welding guard”. This article will explore in depth the importance of argon as a shielding gas and its application.
- The role of shielding gas argon in metal processing
In metal processing, shielding gas argon can prevent oxygen from entering the metal surface during welding, cutting and other processes, so that it is not affected by oxidation and corrosion. At the same time, argon can also blow away the oxides on the metal surface, thereby ensuring the smooth progress of welding, cutting and other processes. - The role of shielding gas argon in welding
In welding, shielding gas argon can form a protective gas layer in the welding area to prevent oxygen and moisture in the air from entering the welding area, thereby ensuring the quality and stability of the weld during the welding process. - The role of shielding gas argon in cutting
In cutting, shielding gas argon can discharge oxygen and moisture in the cutting area, thereby ensuring the cutting quality and speed.
The role of shielding gas argon in industry mainly includes preventing oxidation and corrosion, and improving the quality and stability of welding, cutting and other processes. Compared with other gases, the protective gas argon has the advantages of high stability, low thermal conductivity and high ignition point, so it has been widely used in industry.
