What is Krypton Gas?

Krypton (Kr) is a noble gas with atomic number 36, part of the periodic table’s Group 18.  Discovered in 1898 by Sir William Ramsay and Morris Travers, krypton is a trace component of Earth’s atmosphere, constituting just 1 part per million (ppm).  It is obtained commercially through fractional distillation of liquefied air.

Krypton is chemically inert, non-toxic, and colorless, making it ideal for specialized applications where stability and minimal reactivity are critical.

What are the key physical properties of krypton gas?

Atomic Weight: 83.798 g/mol

Density: 3.749 g/L at 0°C and 1 atm

Melting Point: -157.4°C (-251.3°F)

Boiling Point: -153.4°C (-244.1°F)

Triple Point: -169°C (82 kPa)

Critical Temperature: -63.8°C

Thermal Conductivity: 0.00949 W/m·K at 300K

Krypton emits a bright white light when ionized, a property leveraged in lighting and laser technologies.

What purity grades do you offer for krypton gas?

We supply ultra-high-purity krypton gas tailored to industry requirements:

Standard Grade: 99.99% purity (4.0N)

High Purity: 99.999% (5.0N)

Ultra-High Purity: 99.9999% (6.0N)

Key Technical Parameters:

Filling Pressure: Customizable (e.g., 150–200 bar in cylinders)

Packaging: Seamless steel or aluminum cylinders (10L to 50L)

How should krypton gas be stored and handled safely?

Storage Temperature: Keep cylinders below 52°C (125°F) in a dry, ventilated area.

Cylinder Orientation: Secure upright to prevent tipping.

Leak Detection: Use soap solution or gas detectors for routine checks.

Material Compatibility: Use stainless steel or aluminum fittings to avoid contamination.

Safety Note: Though non-flammable, krypton can displace oxygen in confined spaces.  Always use in well-ventilated areas.

FAQ:

Can krypton gas be mixed with other noble gases?

Yes!  Krypton is often blended with argon or xenon for enhanced thermal insulation in windows or specialized lighting.

What’s the shelf life of krypton gas in cylinders?

Indefinite if stored properly.  Regularly inspect cylinders for leaks or corrosion.

Do you provide krypton gas for experimental research?

Absolutely.  We supply small-scale cylinders with ultra-high purity for lab use.
