  2. Acetylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetylene

    [58] [59] It is therefore supplied and stored dissolved in acetone or dimethylformamide (DMF), [59] [60] [61] contained in a gas cylinder with a porous filling, which renders it safe to transport and use, given proper handling. Acetylene cylinders should be used in the upright position to avoid withdrawing acetone during use. [62]

  3. Agamassan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agamassan

    Before Dalén's work, numerous attempts were made to find a mass sufficiently elastic to withstand shock without crumbling and producing cavities filled with explosive acetylene gas. Acetylene is shipped and stored in metal cylinders filled with agamassan, which is half-filled with dimethylformamide (DMF) or acetone. The acetylene is dissolved ...

  4. Gas cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_cylinder

    A gas cylinder quad, also known as a gas cylinder bundle, is a group of high pressure cylinders mounted on a transport and storage frame. There are commonly 16 cylinders, each of about 50 litres capacity mounted upright in four rows of four, on a square base with a square plan frame with lifting points on top and may have fork-lift slots in the ...

  5. Oxy-fuel welding and cutting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxy-fuel_welding_and_cutting

    As a fuel, acetylene's primary disadvantage in comparison to other fuels is its high price. As acetylene is unstable at a pressure roughly equivalent to 33 ft (10 m) underwater, water-submerged cutting and welding is reserved for hydrogen rather than acetylene. Compressed gas cylinders containing oxygen and MAPP gas

  6. Industrial gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_gas

    A gas regulator attached to a nitrogen cylinder. Industrial gases are the gaseous materials that are manufactured for use in industry.The principal gases provided are nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide, argon, hydrogen, helium and acetylene, although many other gases and mixtures are also available in gas cylinders.

  7. Fusible plug - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fusible_plug

    The principle of the fusible plug is also applied to the transport of liquefied petroleum gases, where fusible plugs (or small, exposed patches of the containers' lining membrane) are designed to melt or become porous if too high a temperature is reached: a controlled release, at a typical temperature of 250 °F (121 °C), is preferable to an ...

    Reports that comedian Chris Rock "stormed out" of the middle of a set at billionaire Andrew Pratt's private holiday party in a huff are unfounded, an onlooker tells PEOPLE. "He didn't storm off ...

  9. MAPP gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MAPP_gas

    A set of MAPP and oxygen cylinders is used for oxy-fuel welding and cutting.. MAPP gas was a trademarked name, belonging to The Linde Group, a division of the former global chemical giant Union Carbide, for a fuel gas based on a stabilized mixture of methylacetylene (propyne), propadiene and propane.
