[QUOTE="Redgully, post: 1816153, member: 33533"] They refer to them as dry shippers here. As Jeanne says they use nitrogen, but it is absorbed into a porous lining so it can't spill out. They have very low evaporation rates but obviously can't hold a lot of nitrogen. There are different sizes that last different lengths of time. My nitrogen guy was telling me he hates filling those things as they take a long time. I could be wrong, but im sure he said they can take about a day to absorb and get down to the correct temperature. [/QUOTE]
