Product Attributes
CGA Connection
• CGA 510Gas Grade
• Atomic Absorption
Features
- Acetylene combustion in pure oxygen produces the highest achievable flame temperature, over 3300°C, releasing 11,800 J/g, because of its triple-bond structure H-C+/-C-H.
- Recommended for use with Atomic Absorption (AA) Spectrophotometers.
Applications
- Air/acetylene and nitrous-oxide/acetylene are the gas mixtures most commonly used in Laboratories as a fuel source in Flame Atomic Absorption (FLAA), a common technique for detecting metals and metalloids.
Safety
- Always use in accordance with the Safety Data Sheet (SDS)
- Cylinder must be stored and used in an upright, secured position in a well-ventilated or monitored area
- Always follow local fire code requirements when storing gas cylinders.
- Delivery pressure should not exceed 15 psi
