Wive's tale? There is a porous material inside an acetylene cylinder that is then filled with acetone. The acetone absorbs the acetylene gas so it is stable above 15 PSI.

The maximum size of pipe for filling is 1/2" and it's double extra heavy pipe. When filling the cylinder is cooled with water. Why do think acetylene cylinders are so heavy? Have you ever noticed a black type liquid when using a rosebud? It's from withdrawing acetylene too fast and is the acetone. I toured a cylinder fill plant.
