According to the TSA website, compressed cylinders are not allowed:
http://www.tsa.gov/traveler-information/prohibited-items#9
Section:
Disabling Chemicals & Other Dangerous Items
Fire extinguishers and other compressed gas cylinders Allowed: NO
This doesn't mean the airline doesn't have specific requirements, but assuming you are leaving from the US it's TSA that you have to get through first before dealing with the airline.

From the link in Green Chili's post:
Flammable Items Carry-on? Checked? Aerosol (any except for personal care or toiletries in limited quantities) NO NO
This is a flammable aerosol (read the description, the propellant is a hydrocarbon), it's not personal care or a toiletry, it's not permitted.

One time I tried to bring imported compressed air from Taiwan, very rare, on a flight from Hong Kong to Africa, they asked why I had a warrant out from back home in Tibet, and I explained to them that the Tibetan Monks aren't fond of using compressed air to freeze other humans. I went on to explain I am a compressed air salesman from Madagascar and that the can I was carrying was my product. 3 1/2 body cavity searches later, they let me take it on! They never identified me as the man that froze the flight attendant on that flight hehe. Long story short, with patience and persistence, you can get away with it.
