Can back-to back minis be used for hanging (supporting) one conduit from another conduit or pipe. I say no, but I need to back it up with other than my saying so.
What can I reference?

Re: Back to Back supports

Look at 300.11(B)

There are three conditions where raceways may be used as a means of support.

1. A cable tray may support raceways at their point of attachment.

2. The low voltage control circuit cable may be attached to the power raceway of a central a/c condenser.

3. A raceway may be used as a pendant support of a luminaire.

In general, I would say that the use of back-to-back Minerallac hangers to support one conduit from another is not permitted.

However, I have used them for supplemental support between power and control conduits installled in accordance with 344.30(B)(3).
