High Purity Metal Beryllium

Product Information

Beryllium (Be) is a brittle, steel-gray alkaline earth metal. Beryllium is strong, lightweight, and has a modulus of elasticity 50% greater than steel. It has non-magnetic properties and has higher specific heat than any metal. Beryllium retains excellent properties at elevated and cryogenic temperatures, making this fascinating metal an ideal thermal conductor. Because of its low density and high thermal conductivity, beryllium has many applications in the aerospace and military industries. It is frequently used as a material in acoustic applications for its damping properties and high stiffness-to-weight ratio.

ATT has recently developed high-purity metal wrinkles that can replace semiconductor MBE molecular beam epitaxial sheets and meet the needs of semiconductor industry epitaxial sheets 4N and 5N :

Molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) is a new crystal growth technique. As a mature technology, MBE has long been used in the fabrication of microwave devices and optoelectronic devices. The application of optoelectronic devices in military has become one of the key technologies to improve all kinds of weapons and communication command and control systems, and plays a particularly important role in improving the survivability of the system. It mainly includes laser, photodetector, optical fiber sensor, charge coupled device (CCD) camera system and flat panel display system. They are widely used in radar, directional weapons, guidance seeker, infrared night vision detection, communication, airborne carrier-borne vehicle display system, missile fire control, radar sonar system and so on. The key technologies of the above optoelectronic devices have in common with microelectronic and microwave millimeter wave devices are advanced ultrathin layer material growth technologies such as molecular beam epitaxy and metal-organic compound vapor deposition.

Applications of High Purity Metal Beryllium

As a new material, beryllium has been paid more and more attention. Beryllium is an indispensable precious material in atomic energy, rocket, missile, aviation, space navigation and metallurgical industry.

1. Among all metals, beryllium has the strongest ability to pass X-rays and is known as metallic glass, so beryllium is an irreplaceable material for manufacturing X-ray tube small Windows.

2. Beryllium is a treasure of the atomic energy industry. In atomic reactors, beryllium is a neutron source that can provide a large number of neutron shells (hundreds of thousands of neutrons per second); Beryllium has a strong slowing effect on fast neutrons, which can make the fission reaction continue, so beryllium is the best neutron moderator in atomic reactors.

3. Beryllium is an excellent aerospace material. For every kilogram the weight of the satellite increases, the total weight of the launch vehicle increases by about 500kg. The structural materials used to make rockets and satellites need to be light and strong. Beryllium is lighter than aluminum and titanium and four times stronger than steel. Beryllium has strong heat absorption ability and stable mechanical properties.

4. In the metallurgical industry, bronze containing 1% to 3.5% of beryllium is called beryllium bronze, which has better mechanical properties than steel, good corrosion resistance, and maintains high electrical conductivity. It is used to make hairspring in watches, high-speed bearings, submarine cables and so on. Beryllium bronze containing a certain amount of nickel does not produce sparks when it is hit, and this property can be used to make chisels, hammers, drills, etc. special for petroleum and mining industries to prevent fire and explosion accidents. Beryllium bronze containing nickel is not attracted by magnets and can be used to make anti-magnetic parts.

Packing of High Purity Metal Beryllium

Standard Packing:

Typical bulk packaging includes palletized plastic 5 gallon/25 kg. pails, fiber and steel drums to 1 ton super sacks in full container (FCL) or truck load (T/L) quantities. Research and sample quantities and hygroscopic, oxidizing or other air sensitive materials may be packaged under argon or vacuum. Solutions are packaged in polypropylene, plastic or glass jars up to palletized 440 gallon liquid totes Special package is available on request.
