I don't know about the separation of the mixed gases once they are in the cylinder, but the explanations about molecular activity keeping the mixtures in suspension make sense to me! I did hear from some reliable experts at Lincoln Electric, that gas suppliers can and do miss-mix gases on occasion at the filling stations. The result is that a welding set-up or process that normally works well, all of a sudden goes in the toilet when a new bottle of gas is installed. I'm sure it does not happen often, but everything is possible. What do you all think?
