Helium is used for purposes that require some of its unique properties: its low density, low solubility, and high thermal conductivity. 7,000 tons, or 22%, of the total helium used involves the cooling of superconducting magnets in medical magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanners.
Objects that float in â¦the air, such as balloons, blimps, Other uses of helium include: - being a protective shield while growing silicon and germanium crystals. - supersonic wind tunnels - nuclear reactors - a protective shield for titanium and zirconium fabrication. - pressurizing liquid fuel rockets.
