Acetylene (C2H2)
Acetylene is a flammable, colorless gas with ether-like odor when very pure, otherwise garlic-like. Supplied dissolved in acetone. It can decompose instantaneously at pressure higher than 1 bar. Acetylene can be delivered as a non-dissolved gas for specific R&D application.
Acetylene from Linde Thailand is derived from a petrochemical process, offering superior purity and quality compared to calcium carbide-based sources.
Acetylene is most commonly used in combination with oxygen for cutting or welding materials such as mild steel, where the standard industrial grade is sufficient.
