Description

Xenon CAS NO 7440-63-3 is a noble gas element characterized by its high density, chemical inertness, and unique ability to form compounds under specific conditions. Its primary commercial value lies in its exceptional ability to produce brilliant, efficient light and its utility as a safe, non-reactive tracer and anesthetic agent. This product is essential for manufacturers and research facilities in the lighting, medical imaging, aerospace, and semiconductor industries, where its specific physical and electronic properties are critical for advanced applications.

Application

• Lighting and Illumination: Used in high-intensity discharge (HID) lamps for automotive headlights, stadium lighting, and cinema projectors due to its bright white light.
• Medical Imaging and Anesthesia: Critical component in computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) systems. Also used as a general anesthetic (Xenon anesthesia).
• Aerospace and Satellite Propulsion: Employed as a propellant for ion thrusters in satellites and deep-space probes due to its high atomic mass and inert nature.
• Semiconductor Manufacturing: Used in plasma etching and as a filling gas in specialized lasers for photolithography processes.
• Scientific Research: Utilized in particle detectors, nuclear medicine, and as a quenching gas in radiation detection equipment.
• Insulation and Windows: Filling gas for high-performance double-pane windows and specialized insulation due to its low thermal conductivity.

Quality Control

Our Xenon is produced and handled under stringent quality management systems to ensure high purity and consistency for demanding industrial and medical applications. Each batch is analyzed to meet or exceed industry-standard specifications for purity and impurity levels. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing gas composition, pressure, and critical impurity profiles are available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat sources and direct sunlight. Due to its highly volatile and gaseous nature, cylinders must be secured upright and handled in accordance with compressed gas safety regulations. Keep container valves tightly closed when not in use.
