Onderdeel van: Hazardous substances
Working safelyGases can be made liquid or solid by increasing pressure or by strong cooling. Gases that have become liquid (or solid, as with carbon dioxide) at very low temperatures (below 150°C) are called cryogenic substances. In addition to their (hazardous) substance properties, cryogenic substances have additional risks related to their low temperatures. These risks can be divided into: Effects of the low temperature on the environment they come into contact with, such as embrittlement of materials and freezing of limbs. Effects of pressure formation due to rapid evaporation, such as explosion hazard of ampoules. YouTube: Safe working with cryogenic…
