Pures

Afrox stocks a wide range of scientific pures with your laboratory needs in mind. The material codes and descriptions listed will guide you to make the right choice.

Nitrous Oxide (N2O R-744A)

Nitrous oxide is used as a general anaesthetic in both medical and dental surgeries. To be effective as an anaesthetic nitrous oxide must be inhaled with air or oxygen.

Synthetic Air (80% N2 + 20% O2)

Synthetic Air is used as zero gas in the running and calibration of environmental monitoring and test measures.

Argon (Ar R-740)

Argon is used as a carrier gas in sputtering plasma etching and ion implantations and as a blanket atmosphere in crystal growth.

Oxygen (O2 R-732)

High purity oxygen is used for the formation of silicon dioxide and metal oxide as an etchant for photoresist and in mixtures with halocarbons for etching silicon.

Nitrogen (N2 R-728)

Nitrogen is used in large quantities in the chemical industry for blanketing purging and pressure transfer of flammable chemicals.
