Suppliers of regenerator materials

/ CSA Executive Director

I was looking for suppliers of regenerator materials. Can you please provide a list of vendors for:
• Lead spheres
• Bronze screen discs
• Rare earth materials and spheres

Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.

  1. One of our sources says it’s more of an application question, and that material suppliers would be glad to sell lead spheres and bronze screens, but they would probably not have the surface conditions appropriate for your application. He suggested you might be best off to contact regenerator manufacturers.

    For rare earth materials, the only recommendation we received was to try a Google search. I did a quick search and found that Ames Laboratory describes itself as the “go-to source for expertise in the synthesis, analysis and engineering of rare-earth metals and their alloys,” so perhaps someone there could assist you. Their website (https://www.ameslab.gov/rare-earth-metals) says that their Materials Preparation Center is recognized for purification, preparation and characterization of rare earth metals (among other materials). I also came across a company called Polaris Rare Earth Materials.
