99.999% Rare Gas Krypton Gas Kr Packed In DOT Cylinders Used In Photographic Flashes For High Speed Photograph
Description:
Krypton is a chemical element with symbol Kr and atomic number 36. It is a member of group 18 (noble gases) elements. A colorless, odorless, tasteless noble gas, krypton occurs in trace amounts in the atmosphere,is isolated by fractionally distilling liquefied air,and is often used with other rare gases in fluorescent lamps.
Newradar Special Gases Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) are available for Krypton gas and should be used as guidelines in regard to first aid, methods of storage, handling and general use of Krypton.

Applications:
1.Krypton is used in some photographic flashes for high speed photograph.
2.Krypton gas is also combined with other gases to make luminous signs that glow with a bright
greenish-yellow light.
3.Krypton is mixed with argon in energy efficient fluorescent lamps, reducing the power consumption,
but also reducing the light output and raising the cost.
4.Krypton (along with xenon) is also used to fill incandescent lamps to reduce filament evaporation and
allow higher operating temperatures.A brighter light results with more blue color than conventional
incandescent lamps.
5.Krypton's white discharge is often used to good effect in colored gas discharge tubes, which are simply
painted or stained to create the desired color (for example, "neon" type multi-colored advertising signs
are often entirely krypton-based).
6.Krypton-83 has application in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for imaging airways. In particular, it
enables the radiologist to distinguish between hydrophobic and hydrophilic surfaces containing an
airway.
