Exit bag: Would industrial grade nitrogen work if it's 98% pure

my main worry is if I bought the wrong type of nitrogen or it's not %100 because everyone on this site said that there is no such thing as %100 pure and the highest is %99.99999. I asked the store and they said they pull a 28 vacuum on tanks before filling and that's why it's 100%
the website says it can also be used as a refrigerant gas R-728 which I don't understand what it means or if that's bad and won't work for what am using it for (die).

Used as a refrigerant gas does not detract from its property as N2. You may have noticed that a highly compressed gas (LPG) when allowed to escape through a small orifice gets very cold at the orifice. that is physics due to the property of latent heat of vaporisation. That is its refrigerant property. A lot of gases are used as a refrigerant and nitrogen is used in cryogenics. Ninety-eight percent is fine to use - not a problem. The main consideration is the delivery system with a proper regulator and adjustment to twelve or so litres per second. If it's food grade and used for beverage dispensing (beer) it is good to go. I have the 40cu cylinder also.

Got it thank you, sorry if am bothering but again just to make sure, the 100% pure N2 for refrigerator will work. I wanna make sure everything is correct and no mistakes are done
