Xenon - Part 1 Duplikat 7
A small fraction of our atmosphere
Although it is commonly known that the Earth’s atmosphere consists predominantly of Nitrogen and Oxygen, it includes a minor share of rare – or noble – gases too. The term “rare” already denotes their scarcity of abundance, while the phrase “noble” describes their inert nature, in analogy to noble metals. As their outer electron shells are fully occupied, rare gas atoms are almost non-reactive, rendering their state to be monoatomic gases at normal conditions. This inertness is one amongst their unique characteristics for industrial and medical use, where only Xenon, Krypton and Neon are distributed under the product label “rare gas”.

Rising demand for the rarest of gases
As noble gases only occur in traces in our atmosphere, the amount of Xenon, Krypton and Neon to source is highly limited, respectively. However, in several market segments the demand for these rare gases is increased steadily, albeit their limited production volumes. Specific laser applications operate exclusively with rare gas mixtures and firmly drives the total rare gas market in medical and electronics segment alike, plus the latter utilizing rare gas for other applications. Further applications include the manufacturing of glass and windows, as well as the propulsion of satellites in space.
