Topics: Cryotechnology : Cryogenic Processing of Materials
Bookmark or ShareCryogenic Processing of Materials is the technique of immersing materials in liquid nitrogen (at -196 degrees C or -320 degrees F) in order to strengthen them. The cold temperatures cause the molecules to shift into alignments that are less subject to wear. This works with metals, wood, and some plastics.
