What is xenon
A dense inert gas for demanding technical systems.
Xenon is a naturally occurring noble gas valued for its high atomic mass, low chemical reactivity and optical and ionization behaviour. A useful B2B request connects the intended process to purity, impurity limits, quantity and package.
Atomic number54
Standard atomic weight131.293
Supply stateCompressed gas
Commercial basisApplication-specific quotation
Isotope requests require a separate specification.Xe-129 and Xe-133 references describe specialist medical and research applications. Availability, regulatory status and documentation must be reviewed for the exact request.
Where xenon is used
One element. Six high-technology contexts.
Each application sets a different quality threshold. The visuals below are technical illustrations and do not represent specific SG Trading customer projects.
02
Semiconductors
Ultra-high-purity xenon is used in selected semiconductor and plasma-processing applications where impurity control is critical.
03
Medical imaging
Xenon isotopes, particularly Xe-129 and Xe-133, are used in specialised pulmonary imaging and diagnostic applications.
04
Lighting and optics
Xenon provides an intense, daylight-like spectrum for arc lamps, flash lamps, projection and solar-simulation systems.
05
Science and research
Liquid and gaseous xenon are used in particle detectors, nuclear-physics experiments and advanced spectroscopy.
06
Lasers
Xenon-containing mixtures are used in excimer and other specialised laser systems.
