• In weldingWelding is the joining together of materials (typically metals or thermo plastics), usually by a fusion process. Most commonly, workpieces are welded by melting both of them and adding more molten metal or plastic to form a pool that cools to form a stron, gas usually refers to acetyleneThe chemical compound acetylene also called ethyne was discovered in 1836 by Edmund Davy, in England; its chemical formula is C H and its structure is: Acetylene is a colorless and extremely flammable gas at standard temperature and pressure with a garlic but can also be ArgonArgon was also a codename used for the KH-5 reconnaissance satellite. Argon is the chemical element in the periodic table that has the symbol Ar and atomic number 18. The third noble gas, in period 8, argon makes up about 1% of the Earth's atmosphere., HeliumHelium is a colorless, odorless, tasteless chemical element, one of the noble gases of the periodic table of elements. Its boiling and melting points are the lowest among the elements; except in extreme conditions, it exists only as a gas. The second most, or Carbon dioxideCarbon dioxide is an atmospheric gas composed of one carbon and two oxygen atoms. One of the best known of chemical compounds, it is frequently called by its formula: :CO (pronunciation: "see oh two") Carbon dioxide results from the combustion of organic. See Metal inert gas weldingMetal inert gas welding (MIG welding is a type of welding which utilises a welding gun through which a continuous wire electrode and a shielding gas is fed. The wires used in the electrodes are typically 0. 6 mm diameter, either solid or 'flux' filled..
• In chemical warfareChemical warfare is warfare (and associated military operations) using non-explosive chemical agents to kill, injure or incapacitate the enemy. Living organisms (including viruses) are not considered chemical warfare: their use is instead labelled biologi, gas is a weaponA weapon is a tool used to kill, maim, destroy or perhaps simply disable, a person or animal and as a result, also to threaten and defend. Since the dawn of humanity the use of weapons has been codified resulting in both martial arts and strategic doctrin.
