Nitrous Oxide, N2O Specialty Gas

Nitrous oxide, also known as nitrous oxide, is an inorganic substance that is
stable at room temperature, has a mild anesthetic effect, and can cause people
to laugh.
N2O Specialty Gas is a specialty gas primarily used for anesthesia and pain
relief in medical and dental procedures, as a propellant in food products like
whipped cream, as an oxidizer in rocket propulsion, and to enhance engine
performance in automotive racing. Although its medical application is the best-
known usage for N2O by far, there are manifold applications existent for
Nitrous Oxide, e.g. for a power enhancement of a combustion engine, as an
oxidizer in rocket motors or as an aerosol spray propellant. However, high-
purity Nitrous Oxide is increasingly used in the semiconductor industry,
predominantly as a precursor for the controlled deposition of thin films onto a
wafer. In particular, N2O UHP is – in combination with Silicon precursors such
as Silane – crucial for the production of high-quality insulating Silicon
Oxide layers.
