Pourquoi le rhénium est important pour de nombreuses industries

Eagle Alloys vend une variété de métaux, dont rhénium. C'est un élément chimique qui est classé comme un métal de transition.

History

First discovered in 1925 en Allemagne, le rhénium a été trouvé pour la première fois dans les minerais de platine et la columbite. Ses composés comprennent des oxydes, halogénures et sulfures. C'est l'un des cinq principaux métaux réfractaires, known to have high resistance to heat and wear.

Utilise

What is rhenium used for? One major use is for producing lead-free, high-octane gasoline when used in conjunction with platinum. It’s also used in alloys that help make jet engines, as well as for filaments for mass spectrographs and ion gauges. Since it’s very hard, it resists corrosion. You might find it in turbine engines and/or rocket motors– it’s an ideal metal for use at extremely high temperatures. Rhenium also works well as electrical contact material since it not only has good wear resistance, but is able to withstand arc corrosion as well. You might find rhenium used in thermocouples, in wire used in flash lamps (pour la photographie) and in additives to certain alloys in order to increase ductility, especially for use at higher temperatures.
