Like other gases, argon has a broad array of applications in various fields. In the glass industry, argon is used in the manufacture of energy-efficient windows. The space between double- or triple-glazed windows can be filled with argon which improves the insulating properties of the window and decreases the energy usage in buildings. In the metalworking industry, it is used not only in welding, as mentioned before, but in metal cutting and treat- mental processes. Argon can be used as an assist gas in laser cutting of metals to blow away molten material, preventing oxidation of the cut edges, and thermal treatment. During thermal treatment, argon provides inert atmosphere which protects the metal from oxidation or decarburization, producing a uniform high-quality result. Industrial argon is primarily used in different industries and is produced in bulk by air separation units which isolate argon from other component of air like nitrogen and oxygen.
