1. Metal materials
Annealing and tempering: By creating a vacuum or inert gas environment (such as nitrogen or argon), the internal stress of the metal is eliminated, the microstructure is improved, and the mechanical properties are enhanced. For example, annealing steel, titanium alloys, aluminum alloys, etc. under vacuum can avoid oxidation and maintain surface smoothness.
Vacuum brazing: Using low melting point brazing materials to connect metal components in vacuum or inert gas, avoiding oxidation pollution, suitable for precision instruments, aerospace structural components, etc.

2. Ceramic materials
Ceramic sintering: By creating a vacuum or specific gas environment (such as hydrogen or nitrogen), ceramic particles are densified to enhance strength and heat resistance. For example, transparent alumina ceramics: hydrogen atmosphere sintering can reduce pores and improve transparency.
Nitride ceramics (such as aluminum nitride): Nitrogen atmosphere sintering can prevent nitrogen loss and maintain material properties.
Melting and Opening: Melting ceramic raw materials under vacuum to avoid impurities from entering, suitable for the production of high-temperature ceramic tubes, ceramic tiles, etc.

3. Electronic Industry Materials
Semiconductor device manufacturing: preparing transistors, integrated circuits, etc. in vacuum or high-purity inert gas to prevent metal oxidation or contamination and ensure stable electrical performance.
Electronic component packaging: By vacuum brazing or inert gas protection, sensitive components (such as sensors and chips) are packaged to enhance reliability.
Fiber optics and optical glass: eliminate bubbles and impurities in the material to obtain optical materials with high transmittance and low loss.

4. Powder metallurgy materials
Powder sintering: In vacuum or reducing gas (such as hydrogen), metal powder is pressed into shape and sintered to prepare high-performance alloys (such as hard alloys and magnetic alloys).
Melt infiltration and alloying: By promoting the infiltration of liquid metal into the gaps between powders in a vacuum environment, dense composite materials are formed, commonly used in tool steel, stainless steel, etc.
Active metal treatment: Vacuum sintering can avoid the reaction between active metals such as beryllium, thorium, titanium, zirconium and gas, and maintain material purity.

5. New energy materials
Lithium ion battery materials: sintering positive and negative electrode materials (such as lithium cobalt oxide, graphite) in vacuum or inert gas, optimizing crystal structure, improving energy density and cycle life.
Fuel cell materials: Key components such as electrolyte membranes and catalysts are prepared through vacuum treatment to improve proton conductivity and durability.

6. Aerospace Materials
High temperature alloy: Heat treat nickel based and cobalt based high-temperature alloys in vacuum or inert gas to enhance high-temperature strength and creep resistance, suitable for turbine blades, engine components, etc.
Titanium alloy: Vacuum annealing can eliminate processing stress, improve the fatigue performance of titanium alloy, and meet the requirements of aviation structural components.

7. Glass manufacturing materials
Melting and Opening: Melting glass raw materials in vacuum or inert gas to avoid oxidation pollution, improve glass transparency and strength, suitable for the production of optical glass and special glass.

8. Research and Military Materials
Refractory metals: Vacuum sintered tungsten, molybdenum, and their alloys to prepare high melting point, high-strength components such as rocket nozzles, electrodes, etc.
New material development: Synthesize high-temperature superconducting materials, nanomaterials, etc. through vacuum or controlled atmosphere environment to support cutting-edge scientific research.
