Acetylene 99.9% purity C2H2 Gas Industrial

Acetylene is produced commercially by the reaction between calcium carbide and water, and is a by-product of ethylene production.

Acetylene is an important metal working gas, it can react with oxygen to produce high temperature flame, used in machining, fitters, welding and cutting. Acetylene welding is a common processing method that can glue two or more metal parts together to achieve the purpose of tight connection. In addition, acetylene can also be used to cut a variety of metals, including stainless steel, steel and aluminum. Acetylene can be used to produce chemicals such as acetylol alcohols, styrene, esters and propylene. Among them, acetynol is a commonly used organic synthesis intermediate, which can be used to manufacture chemicals such as acetynoic acid and alcohol ester. Styrene is an organic compound widely used in plastics, rubber, dyes and synthetic resins. Acetylene can be used in the medical field for treatments such as anesthesia and oxygen therapy. Oxyacetylene welding, used in surgery, is an advanced technique for soft tissue cutting and organ removal. In addition, acetylene is used in the manufacture of medical devices such as scalpels, various medical lamps and dilators. In addition to the fields mentioned above, acetylene can also be used to make various materials such as rubber, cardboard and paper. In addition, acetylene can also be used as a feedstock for the production of olefin and specialty carbon materials, as well as as a gas used in production processes such as lighting, heat treatment and cleaning.

Safety Instructions

Emergency Overview: Highly flammable gas.
GHS Hazard Class: According to the Chemical Classification, Warning Label and Warning Specification series standards, the product is a flammable gas, Class 1; Gases under pressure, category: Pressurized gases – dissolved gases.
Warning word: Danger
Danger information: highly flammable gas, containing high pressure gas, may explode in case of heat.

Precautions:
Preventive measures: Keep away from heat sources, sparks, open flames, hot surfaces, and no smoking in the workplace.
Accident response: If the leaking gas catches fire, do not extinguish the fire unless the leaking source can be cut off safely. If there is no danger, eliminate all ignition sources.
Safe storage: Avoid sunlight and store in a well-ventilated place.
Disposal: This product or its container shall be disposed of in accordance with local regulations.
Physical and chemical hazard: gas under extremely flammable pressure. Acetylene forms explosive mixtures with air, oxygen and other oxidizing vapors. Decomposition occurs when heated or pressure rises, with a risk of fire or explosion. Contact with an oxidizing agent can cause violent reactions. Contact with fluorinated chlorine can cause violent chemical reactions. Can form explosive substances with copper, silver, mercury and other compounds. Compressed gas, cylinders or containers are prone to overpressure when exposed to high heat from open fire, and have the risk of explosion. Health hazards: Low concentration has anaesthetic effect, inhalation of headache, dizziness, nausea, ataxia and other symptoms. High concentrations cause asphyxia.
Environmental hazards: No data available.
