CAS 74-86-2 — Dissolved Acetylene Cylinder

Dissolved acetylene (CAS 74-86-2) is a highly versatile hydrocarbon gas, primarily used in oxy-fuel cutting, welding, and as a chemical feedstock for producing vinyl chloride, acetic acid, and synthetic rubber. It is stored in cylinders dissolved in acetone under pressure for safe handling. This chemical has a molecular formula of C2H2 and a molecular weight of 26.04 g/mol. It requires careful handling due to its flammable and explosive nature, with a signal word of "Danger." Proper ventilation and protective equipment are essential when working with dissolved acetylene. Molekula supplies dissolved acetylene from research to bulk quantities with full documentation and ISO 9001:2015 traceability.
