Dumet Wire
Dumet wire is the basic metal component of a Lead-in-Wire providing the required vacuum tight glass-to-metal seal. Dumet consists of a base wire and a sheath. The ratio of both compounds should be in well-balanced proportions. Only then is it guaranteed to obtain a vacuum tight conductor through glass. This principle is used mainly in the lighting and diode production.
In order to produce dumet wire, some key processes must be precisely controlled. In the set-up line, the cladding is realized: a Copper clad on a core wire (e.g. Nickel-Iron). This Copper cladded wire is welded to achieve an endless length and drawn to obtain the requested diameter. Finally the surface of the dumet has to be treated to guarantee a good adhesion to the glass. Depending on the application requirements this well-defined surface treatment can be done in either ways: Borating, oxidizing or nickel-plating.
It is available in various surface finishes: electrically oxidized and borax coated. Borated surface finish Dumet is used in Lead-in-wires for lamps. Dumet forms a glass-to-metal seal while manufacturing these lamps. The oxidized Dumet is used in Lead-in-wires, diodes and capacitor slug leads application.
Product application:
- Lead-in wires for bulbs, fluorescent lamps, energy saving lamps, LED and auto lamps
- Conductors for components such as rectifier diodes, surge suppressor and temperature sensors.
Controlled Expansion Alloys
Controlled expansion alloys are iron-nickel alloys or iron-nickel-cobalt alloys used for applications in which thermal size change of the metal must be considered in the design. Composition and crystal structure help to determine each alloy's thermal expansion behavior. The alloy expansion rate is most commonly stated in terms of an average coefficient of thermal expansion. Controlled expansion alloys were developed to demonstrate a coefficient of thermal expansion within certain ranges.
Iron and nickel have very similar coefficients of thermal expansion. However, the addition of nickel to iron can result in the creation of an alloy in which the coefficient is reduced by an order of magnitude. Controlled expansion alloys fall into three categories: low thermal expansion alloys, matching expansion alloys and high thermal expansion alloys. The most common controlled expansion alloys are Alloy K, Alloy 45/46, Alloy 4750, Alloy 48, Alloy 49, Alloy 52.
Low expansion alloys are iron-nickel alloys that exhibit an extremely low expansion rate at room temperature. These materials have been utilised in modern applications that require metal to be joined to glass or ceramic, and areas where the thermal expansion rates of the materials must coincide to prevent differential expansion within the joint area. They are used in industries such as electronics, medical (laser and x-ray machines), aerospace engineering, telecommunications and cryogenic components.
Product application:
- Optical device components and optical communication equipment
- Semiconductor equipment, thin-film processing equipment and FPD manufacturing equipment
- Lead frames and Block gauges (standard length pieces)
