In what is becoming an annual tradition, Industrial Heating, with assistance from BNP Media Market Research, polled qualified subscribers on a variety of industry- and job-related issues. Our goal is simple. We want to find out more about the current state of employment in the thermal-processing industry. 

By understanding that there are differences between carbon steels and nickel-based heat-resistant alloys and employing proper procedures and practices, these alloys can be successfully welded consistently.

Since the development of commercial electric heating elements at the beginning of the 20th century, oxidation and corrosion resistance have been primary goals in the creation of new high-temperature resistance and construction alloys and ceramic materials.

The behavior of high-temperature alloy constructions used in oxidizing environments is important for processes like PM sintering and thermal processing of advanced steels.
