What Do We Use Helium-4 For?
Today, more than one-third of the helium consumption is for cryogenic applications (mostly MRI: 22%, laboratory use: 10%, other cryogenics: 4%). Complementary use for…
Where Does Helium Come From?
In general, helium is not a rare element in our universe. On the contrary, it is the second-most abundant element in the observable universe, after hydrogen. It…
