Subliming dry ice pellet, with white frost on the surface. Dry ice means the solid form of carbon dioxide.It is commonly used for temporary refrigeration as CO 2 does not have a liquid state at normal atmospheric pressure and sublimes directly from the solid state to the gas state.
Pellets of "dry ice", a common form of solid carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide is colorless. At low concentrations, the gas is odorless; however, at sufficiently high concentrations, it has a sharp, acidic odor. [1] At standard temperature and pressure, the density of carbon dioxide is around 1.98 kg/m 3, about 1.53 times that of air. [27]
Dry ice subliming in air. Solid carbon dioxide sublimes rapidly along the solid-gas boundary (sublimation point) below the triple point (e.g., at the temperature of −78.5 °C, at atmospheric pressure), whereas its melting into liquid CO 2 can occur along the solid-liquid boundary (melting point) at pressures and temperatures above the triple ...

Dry-ice blasting used to clean a rubber mold. Dry-ice blasting is a form of carbon dioxide cleaning, where dry ice, the solid form of carbon dioxide, is accelerated in a pressurized air stream and directed at a surface in order to clean it. [1] [2]
Supercritical carbon dioxide (s CO 2) is a fluid state of carbon dioxide where it is held at or above its critical temperature and critical pressure. Carbon dioxide usually behaves as a gas in air at standard temperature and pressure (STP), or as a solid called dry ice when cooled and/or pressurised sufficiently.
The most common chemicals used for cloud seeding include silver iodide, [4] potassium iodide and dry ice (solid carbon dioxide). Liquid propane , which expands into a gas, has also been used. It can produce ice crystals at higher temperatures than silver iodide.
Carbon dioxide cleaning refers to several different methods for parts cleaning, making use of all phases of CO 2: [7] basic methods include solid dry ice pellets, liquid CO 2, CO 2 snow (a hybrid method), and supercritical CO 2.
