The difference between nitrogen and argon as protective gas
Summary: Argon is heavier than nitrogen because argon has a larger molecular weight, and argon is more inert than nitrogen, so argon-filled welding has a wider application range than nitrogen-filled shielded welding. Nitrogen: Elemental nitrogen is a colorless and odorless gas under normal conditions, and the gas density under standard conditions is 1.25g·dm-3. Nitrogen turns into a colorless liquid when cooled to -195.8°C under standard atmospheric pressure, , when cooled to -209.86°C, it turns into a snow-like solid. The solubility of nitrogen in water is very small. At normal temperature and pressure, only about 0.02 volume of nitrogen is dissolved in 1 volume of water. It is a gas that is difficult to
