Argon is a colorless, odorless and tasteless
inert gas which has no toxic properties. A member
of the rare gas chemical family, argon constitutes
less than 1% of the atmosphere and is heavier than
air. Liquid argon at -302ºF is clear and odorless.
Liquid argon is classified as Type
II by the compressed Gas Association (CGA). CGA
G-11.1, Type II, Grade C is considered commercial
liquid argon standards.
Liquid Argon
(Units in ppm (v/v) unless show otherwise)
Keen guarantees commercial grade product delivered
as a liquid meets the commercial CGA specification
listed. Keen does not normally guarantee commercial
grade product delivered as a compressed gas meets
the gaseous specification listed because gas purities
are affected by normal cylinder filling practices
and process procedures which may compromise the
integrity of the product.
