Keyboard cleaner

[Rozal]

I came accross some keyboard cleaners with the compressed air, flip it upside down and spray and it turns my pencil into a rock. i touched it and it broke : /. Turns water instanly to ice.
So can this be used to an advantage?

It's Liquid Nitrogen i think.

It's freon I think. Yea if you turn it upside down you can shoot freon out.

Neither of you are right.

LN2 would be too costy and very dangerous.

R12, typically refered to as freon, has been banned since the mid 1990s.

Can it maintain its liquid form, and used as a cheaper cooling solution?

Actually, I was thinking more about a shattering pencil

Somebody on this forum has done it. They wanted the best air cooling OC ever, but its a phase change system so they did not get the award

You can get seriously hurt if you hit yourself with that upside down.

Its likely some type of refrigerant such as R134. The "Super Duster" canned air from MG Chemicals uses R134A.

ive used it on a cpu before, it was one of my old socket As, just spray it into the fan on the HSF, it cooled it down to mid 20s i believe, then the can was empty.

Yeah I've also used it to cool stuff, there's another product called component cooler that you can get from Radioshack, it's a can that you can hold right-side-up and it sprays like upside-down canned air. I've considered using them for a longer term cooling solution, but you'd need cases of the things if you wanted to cool it constantly.

I had a metal pole, It was hallow but had a think cover of metal. I spray alot of it inside (this liquid form) and a think covering of white ice began of the surface of the metal.
