| General comment | Liquid nitrogen is a cryogenic fluid that can cause rapid freezing on contact. It is the liquid form of nitrogen at low temperatures and is produced industrially by fractional distillation of liquid air. It is commonly used in cryogenics, and in the preservation of biological samples, as a coolant for superconductors, in food freezing, in metal processing, and as a component of certain industrial processes. Liquid nitrogen must be handled with special equipment designed for cryogenic materials, and it is provided to consumers in insulated containers. The product is available 'to consumer' and 'at plant'. |
