What is Acetylene?
Acetylene is a colorless pungent-smelling hydrocarbon gas, which burns with a bright flame, used in welding and formerly in lighting.
Acetylene is used for welding and cutting. The welding process that uses acetylene is known as oxy-fuel cutting or gas cutting. Among all other gases, acetylene is capable of producing the hottest flame. For this reason, acetylene serves as an important medium for heat treating metals and other materials.
