Nitrogen Gas
MSDS
Nitrogen gas is tasteless, odorless, colorless, and nonflammable. It constitutes approximately 78.09% of the Earth's atmosphere by volume and has a boiling point of -195.8°C (-320.4°F). The production of Nitrogen gas involves cryogenic distillation or air separation plants, where air is condensed and liquid Nitrogen is distilled. The liquid Nitrogen is then converted into gaseous form at room temperature and stored in Nitrogen Gas Cylinders for industrial applications.
For applications that require a continuous and high quantity of Nitrogen gas, Sandeepni Distributors utilizes N2 gas cylinder quads, which are interconnected cylinders with a common outlet. Nitrogen gas and liquid have extensive applications due to their abundance in the atmosphere and cost-effectiveness.
In certain processes or applications, Nitrogen is required in its liquid form. For such cases, Liquid Nitrogen is stored and supplied in special vacuum-insulated containers known as Cryogenic Containers, Cryo Cans, or Dewars. These containers come in different sizes based on the volume of liquid Nitrogen they can hold.
Nitrogen gas and liquid are available in different purity grades and concentrations to meet the specific requirements of diverse industries. Due to its low reactivity at normal room temperature and affordability, Nitrogen gas finds extensive application in various industrial processes.

Here are some common uses and applications of Nitrogen gas in industries:
1. Leak testing gas for pipelines and vessel installations.
2. Pressurizing gas to flush out chemicals or fluids through pipelines or vessels.
3. Shielding gas in steel manufacturing to reduce oxidation effects in the steel melting process and hot metal treatment for impurity and porosity removal.
4. Degassing process to remove impurities or porosities from molten metals like Aluminum.
5. Instant freezing agent for food items due to its rapid solidifying property.
6. Filler gas in the food packaging industry.
7. Storage of blood, body tissues, and natural samples for humans and other species.
8. Cryosurgery and dermatology techniques where solidification and removal of unhealthy tissues are required.
9. Filler gas in the bulb and lighting industry.
With its wide range of applications, Nitrogen gas is crucial in industries such as manufacturing, metalworking, food processing, healthcare, and more.
