Hydrogen is the lightest gas known. It is a colorless, odorless and tasteless gas and is flammable and nontoxic at atmospheric temperatures and pressures.
The Compressed Gas Association (CGA) specification G-5.3 is the industry standard. Type II, Grade A is considered commercial liquid hydrogen and Type I, Grade B is considered commercial gaseous hydrogen.
Hydrogen
(Units in ppm (v/v) unless show otherwise)
* For vaporized liquid, the typical analyses are Hydrogen, 99.995%; O2/Ar, 1.0 ppm; N2/Total Hydrocarbons, 9.0 ppm; CO2/CO, 1.0 ppm.
** Includes water
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.
