Best Answer

Liquid argon could in theory be used for cryogenics, but it has a similar temperature range to liquid nitrogen, which is tremendously cheaper and more abundant than argon. For the lower temperature ranges, you would use liquid helium.

What is the cryogenics of carbon?

cryogenics means the production of a material at extremely low temperatures in a contained environment and its behavior in that environment. Carbon's "freezing point"(liquid to solid) hovers around 4,000K, and it varies if it is an isotope, and when it reaches its solid state, it can be extracted from that environment. That is the process of cryogenics of carbon.
