After the Civil War, the United States experienced a time of great social and economic change. Americans encountered an onslaught of innovations in technology and science and the rampant rise of big business. Rapid urbanization and industrialisation enveloped much of the north and eventually consumed the frontier.

However, the accelerated progression of the country’s economy and affluence wrought consequential effects.
(Nitrogen, hydrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide, and other elements cause weld defects if introduced to the weld pool.) After a while it was discovered that argon has some advantages over helium. Because argon is heavier than helium, less flow rate is needed. The lower flow rate requirement makes argon better for flat welding. Helium is good for overhead, because it is lighter and thus flows upward.

Both economics and politics experienced radical changes during the Early Republic period in America. Remarkably subtle but undoubtedly significant was the development of a recognizable middle class during the Early Republic. This revolution can be attributed to what Wood refers to as a “consumer revolution of immense importance” and through the pervasive spread of commerce.
