High-purity xenon (Xe) gas supplied from China for lighting, electronics, and medical applications.

Xenon is a colorless, odorless, and tasteless noble gas, known for its extremely low chemical reactivity and high luminous intensity. As one of the rarest gases in the atmosphere, it exhibits excellent light emission properties when electrically stimulated. Xenon serves as a filling gas for photo tubes, flash lamps, high-pressure xenon lamps, and other lighting applications. It is also widely used in deep anesthesia, medical ultraviolet equipment, lasers, welding, refractory metal cutting, and as a component in specialty gas mixtures for semiconductor manufacturing, typically transported as a liquefied compressed gas.

Xenon (UN 2036) is classified as a non-flammable compressed gas and must be handled under strict hazardous materials regulations.
