Dry Ice Blocks - Dry Ice Bricks

Dry Ice Blocks in Langley British Columbia for 1.79 Per LB.

Dry ice is Bricks or Blocks are a solid form of co2. They is used primarily as a cooling agent. Its advantages include lower temperature than that of water ice and not leaving any residue (other than frost from moisture in the atmosphere). It is useful for sub zero cooling when mechanical cooling is not available or cost effective.

Dry ice blocks sublimates at at a temperature of 194.65 K (−78.5 °C; −109.3 °F), at Earths atmospheric pressure. This extreme temperature makes the solid co2 dangerous to handle without protection due to the potential of burns being caused by freezing (frostbite). All our dry ice is food safe.

Common uses for dry ice blocks

• Long shipments: blocks sublimate the slowest, so they last the longest in a shipping box or cooler.
• Power outages: a block in a freezer keeps its contents frozen for longer.
• Camping, fishing and hunting trips: keeps food and catches frozen in a cooler for days (keep the vehicle ventilated).
• Large-volume cooling: bulk cold storage in trucks, trailers and coolers.
• Shrink fitting: chills metal parts such as bearings and bushings so they shrink and press-fit easily.
• Blocks are the choice when you need dry ice to last as long as possible.

Safe handling and storage

• Never touch dry ice with bare skin; wear insulated gloves and use a scoop or tongs.
• Use and store it only in a well-ventilated area, never in a small closed room, walk-in cooler, cold room or basement without ventilation.
• Store it in an insulated container that can vent, like our totes. Never seal it in an airtight container, bottle or jar: the gas pressure can make it burst.
• Never eat or swallow dry ice. Keep it away from children and pets.
• Spills: leave it to sublimate and ventilate the area.
• Disposal: let it sublimate in a well-ventilated place. Never put it down a sink or toilet (it can crack pipes) or in a garbage chute.

First aid

• Skin contact (frostbite): warm the area in lukewarm (not hot) water; do not rub it. Get medical attention.
• Eye contact: rinse with lukewarm water for at least 15 minutes and get medical attention.
• Breathing in too much CO2 (headache, dizziness, fast breathing, drowsiness): move to fresh air right away. Call 911 if breathing is difficult or symptoms continue.
• Swallowed: do not make the person vomit; call 911.
