The first and second quarters of 2023 witnessed a fall in the cost of xenon hexafluoride used in the production of semiconductor wafers. This decline is attributed to the disruption in supply chains caused by Russia's invasion of Ukraine, which resulted in reduced purchasing power among consumers and an increase in inventory levels. Some users of xenon hexafluoride turned to more affordable alternatives like argon, which had a negative impact on the Xenon hexafluoride price trend.

About
Xenon hexafluoride is a strong fluorinating agent with high stability and octahedral geometry. It naturally occurs as a colorless, dense gas at room temperature while sublimation turns into a white crystalline solid. In the synthesis of other fluorine-containing compounds, such as high-energy rocket propellants, it plays a significant role.

Production Processes
In this reaction, xenon and fluoride are heated in an air-tight sealed vessel. The ratio of xenon to fluorine is 20:1, and the temperature of the reactor is around 300°C. The time frame of the reaction is around 15-17 hours while the pressure is maintained at 50 atm. In the subsequent steps, sodium fluoride is used to purify the compound, and then sodium xenon heptafluoride undergoes thermal decomposition, giving xenon hexafluoride as the end product.
