The only alloy steel recommended for cryogenic service is 9% nickel steel. It is satisfactory for service down to -195°C and is used for transport and storage of cryogenics because of its low cost and ease of fabrication. Other alloy steels are suitable for service in the low-temperature range. The steels A201 and T-1 can suffice to -45°C, nickel steels with 2.25% Ni can suffice to -59°C, and nickel steels with 3.5% Ni to -101°C.

Is xenon used in cryogenic chambers?

Not especially.


Is cryogenic freezing related to nitrogen?

Cryogenic freezing is certainly related to nitrogen. In order to complete a deep cryogenic treatment a cryogen must be used. The least expensive cryogen for deep freezing is liquid nitrogen. Another cryogen is helium which allows special made cryogenic processors to reach temperatures approaching absolute zero.


What are cryogenic flasks used for?

Cryogenic flasks are used to store and transport materials at very low temperatures, typically below -150°C. They are commonly used in scientific research, medical applications (such as storing biological samples and preserving vaccines), and in industries like pharmaceuticals and aerospace. The vacuum-insulated design of cryogenic flasks helps maintain the low temperatures for extended periods.


What is cryogenic liquid label?

Cryogenic liquid labels are special labels designed to withstand extremely low temperatures associated with storing and handling cryogenic liquids such as liquid nitrogen or liquid oxygen. These labels are made of materials that can maintain their adhesive properties and legibility even in cryogenic conditions, ensuring safe identification of the contents of storage containers or equipment.

What is cryogenic freezer?

A cryogenic freezer is used to bring components inside the freezer down to cryogenic temperatures. Many cryogenic freezers are available for all sorts of applications. Cold boxes with added ln2 capabilities can refrigerate parts and then complete cryogenic processing cycles. Additionally, cryo freezers are available to freeze sex cells, stems cells, and more. Sometimes people are frozen after death, which is called cryonics. I have added a site below that has cryogenic freezers and processors available.


Is helium used in refrigerators?

Helium is not typically used in refrigerators for cooling purposes. Refrigerators commonly use refrigerants like fluorocarbons, hydrocarbons, or ammonia to facilitate the cooling process. Helium is often used in cryogenic applications or for leak detection.
