Beryllium Foil X-ray Windows Physical properties of beryllium |
Beryllium Metal has the unique physical and mechanical properties
that cannot be found in other metals. Its high stiffness, light weight, and dimensional
stability over a wide temperature range make it useful in aviation and space field, and
space optical system components. Because beryllium is transparent to X-rays, it is used in X-ray windows; beryllium also serves as a canning material, as a neutron moderator. High-speed sound transmission makes beryllium useful in high-speed computer components and audio components. |
