Relax Molecularlly is the opposite of what happens when
you cryogenicly temper something.What happens is that they bring it to as close to negitive 300
as they can by lowering the temp very slowly over a period of days,
then they reverse the process and bring it back to room temp over
a period of days.What this does, if you remember in your highschool physics...
When matter gets cold it's molecules bunch up closer together.
When they get hot they get excited and spread out. When you bring
something to such a low temp, especially a metal, it aligns the
molecules in a very tight stright order, and on a near perfect
north/south compaired to the build of the material. When the material
is brough back up to room temp, it retains that straight north south
alignment making it smoother and stronger on the molecular level.The insulation would be completely uneffected. Just about everything
but tubes could be processed in this way...tubes excluded because they
are a vaccume and that would be a bad thing to subject to temp extremes.Hope that helps clear some of this up.
