Liquid oxygen is more efficient and convenient than compressed oxygen or concentrated oxygen as it allows for storage in larger volume and easier transportation.
1.1412 tons of LOX (at bp & at 1.013 bar) occupies 1 m3 volume
1.1412 tons of GOX (at 15 degC & at 1.013 bar) occupies 842.8 m3 volume.
Volume expansion ~ 843 times from liquid to gaseous state.
Liquid oxygen is oxygen that is cooled to -183 deg. C at which point it is a pale blue liquid.
Liquid Oxygen is utilised to develop and commission many dual-propulsion vehicles.
We supply LOX to support the combustion of rocket fuel.
Oxygen is used as an oxidant for liquid fuels in the propellant systems of missiles & rockets.
Oxygen is used for breathing through oxygen masks, in aeronautics for civil and military planes, rockets.
