3.7 Hydrogen (H₂)
Hydrogen is essential in aerospace as a fuel for rocket engines, supplies energy to computers and life support system in space. It is used to improve plasma welding and cutting operations. In addition, it is usually mixed with Argon to weld stainless steel and can be used as a propellant for any type of vehicle. Hydrogen is also offered as a pure specialty gas under the brand ALPHAGAZ™, which is suitable for critical laboratory and analytical applications.
