Oxygen and Nitrogen Analysis

Oxygen and nitrogen are interstitial elements that influence a metal’s strength, ductility, and weldability, and they are closely controlled in high-performance alloys and additive feedstock. Luvak determines oxygen and nitrogen by inert gas fusion to ASTM E1409, reporting results to ASTM and customer limits.

Luvak determines oxygen and nitrogen by inert gas fusion on the LECO ON736 and Elementrac ONH-p, reporting results to ASTM E1409 and customer limits.

Why Oxygen & Nitrogen Matter

Drives Strength & Ductility

Interstitial content changes how a metal performs.

Affects Weldability

Critical for fabrication and downstream processing.

Essential for Ti & AM Powders

A standard control point for these materials.
