Sodium Conductor

An electrical conduc­tor formed by injecting molten sodium under inert gas atmosphere into a tube of sheathing material. The molten sodium solidifies without external cooling and the conductor can then be put through a die to ensure continuous contact between sheathing material and sodium. A central high tensile core can be introduced into the tube and held in position in the center of the tube while the liquid sodium is in­troduced. The sodium should not be exposed to air because of high reactivity.
