Description

Application

Carbon dioxide is a colourless, odourless, liquefied, and asphyxiating gas that is heavier than air. It is an active gas in CO₂ lasers, a component in artificial biological atmospheres, and a solvent for supercritical fluid extraction and chromatography(SFE / SFC). Gas is easy to handle in a small, light pressure can, while the disposable container allows for aluminium recycling when finished.
