What uses for berylium?

Answer 1

Windows for X-ray tubes, brazing material for zirconium alloys, beryllium bronzes, beryllium alloys for welding, nuclear applications as reflector, beryllium-copper alloys for Transformers, Ra (Am, Pu, Po)-Be source of neutrons, alloys for aviation industry, alloys for missiles, alloy for watches components, nuclear weapons and many other uses. Beryllium oxide: electric insulator but thermal conductor, ceramics for high temperatures, nuclear applications as neutrons reflector, etc. Beryllium fluoride was used in the Molten Salt Reactor Experiment.

Answer 2

Structurally, beryllium's very low density (1.85 times that of water), high melting point (1287 °C), high temperature stability and low coefficient of thermal expansion, make it in many ways an ideal aerospace material, and it has been used in rocket nozzles and is a significant component of planned space telescopes. Because of its relatively high transparency to X-rays and other ionizing radiation types, beryllium also has a number of uses as filters and windows for radiation and particle physics experiments.

Answer 3

Beryllium is commonly used in the aerospace and defense industries due to its lightweight and strong properties. It is also used in nuclear reactors, X-ray tubes, and various electronic components. Additionally, beryllium-copper alloys are used for their high electrical conductivity and resistance to corrosion.

Answer 4

Mainly: Electrical Contacts, Springs and Weldind Rods.

Answer 5

beryllium is used in spring steel to give it spring
