It's what we call it when we cool down a magnet. We do it under active control, as temp gradients can kill the parts also. Really destroy's plastics to dunk, as the surface shrinks before the guts do.Cooldown of the big stuff can take 3 to 4 days. Same with warmup.
I've only had one occasion to actually plunk into liquid, and that was big time overkill to show an epoxy system's robustness.
You say a few dollars a pound? Why are some people giving such high dollar numbers? I am guessing that that's overhead costs.
