Type of article: Article

Summary

Indium is a highly ductile metal that retains much of its malleability at cryogenic temperatures. New papers and patents appear regularly, describing incremental improvements in the engineering design of seals, or a new application facilitated by the properties of indium. The article reviews a number of indium uses as a seal or gasket.
