An inert atmosphere, sometimes referred to as a protective atmosphere, produces very clean parts in a highly controlled environment. It also serves to prevent unwanted chemical reactions (like oxidation or decarburization) from occurring on the surface of the part.
Heat Treatment Processes That Require Controlled Atmospheres
There are several different heat treatment processes that may require a controlled atmosphere in order to be successful. Those requiring either an inert atmosphere or a hydrogen atmosphere include the following:
Why Furnace Atmosphere Is Important？The atmosphere in a heat treatment process can be a critical factor: it may act as a carrier for key elements in the process, or it may act to protect the part being heat treated from the effects of exposure to air while also exposed to substantially elevated temperatures. As a carrier, the atmosphere is chemically reactive with the surface and leads to improved surface characteristics to support processes such as
The working principle of a lab muffle furnace which is also known as a retort furnace is toheat the air inside its chamber using the basic fundamentals of thermal convection andthermal radiation. The name muffle furnace is derived from the fact that the internalceramic chamber of the furnace which is also known as muffle is wrapped up in vastlayers of insulation so as to prevent heat loss and achieve high temperatures.
Tube furnace is mainly used in metallurgy, glass, heat treatment, lithium positive and negative materials, new energy, abrasives, and other industries to determine the material under certain temperature conditions of professional equipment.
There are single-tube, double-tube, horizontal, openable, vertical, single-temperature zone, double-temperature zone, three-temperature zone, and other types of the tube furnace. Mainly used in universities and colleges, scientific research institutes, industrial and mining enterprises, and other experiments and small batch production.

Ovens and Furnaces are used in many different material testing applications. Ovens generally operate at lower temperatures for drying materials in sample preparation or for moisture content determinations. Hot Plates, Ranges, and Heat Gun Driers are more portable and convenient for use in general drying and heating applications. Furnaces generate higher temperatures for special applications.
