[0002] Liquid nitrogen refers to inert, colorless, odorless, non-corrosive, non-flammable nitrogen in the environment of extremely low temperature and obtained liquid. Liquid nitrogen is inert, colorless, odorless, low viscosity, non-corrosive, non-flammable, transparent liquid of extremely low temperature, and a large amount of heat absorption is caused when vaporizing, resulting in frostbite. Nitrogen constitutes most of the atmosphere. At normal pressure, the boiling point of nitrogen is -196.56 DEG C, and 1 cubic meter of liquid nitrogen can expand to 696 cubic meters of pure gaseous nitrogen. If pressurized, liquid nitrogen can be obtained at a higher temperature. If the human body contacts liquid nitrogen without protective measures, the skin may be severely frostbitten. If the nitrogen gas generated by vaporization at normal pressure is excessive, it may cause the oxygen partial pressure in the air to drop, causing oxygen deficiency asphyxia.
