This work provides easy access to physical and thermodynamical data of 138 gases. Introductory chapters offer a general treatment of the physics of gas, inflammability, safety problems in preparation, metrology, nomenclature and units of measurement. Each of the monographs which follow includes chapters on physical and theoretical properties, inflammability, biological properties, precautions for storing and handling the gas, detection of leakages, compatibility with materials, and uses, and is completed by a valuable bibliography.
This encyclopaedia is a vital reference source for all those confronted with the problems in the use of gaseous products.
