  2. Sulfur hexafluoride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfur_hexafluoride

    Sulfur hexafluoride microbubbles are administered in solution through injection into a peripheral vein. These microbubbles enhance the visibility of blood vessels to ultrasound. This application has been used to examine the vascularity of tumours. [26] It remains visible in the blood for 3 to 8 minutes, and is exhaled by the lungs. [27]

  3. Sulfuryl fluoride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfuryl_fluoride

    Sulfuryl fluoride (also spelled sulphuryl fluoride) is an inorganic compound with the formula SO 2 F 2.It is an easily condensed gas and has properties more similar to sulfur hexafluoride than sulfuryl chloride, being resistant to hydrolysis even up to 150 °C. [3]

  4. Fluorinated gases - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorinated_gases

    Sulphur hexafluoride (SF 6) is used primarily as an arc suppression and insulation gas. It can be found in high-voltage switchgear and is used in the production of magnesium. Nitrogen trifluoride (NF 3) is used primarily as an etchant for microelectronics fabrication.

  5. Inhalational anesthetic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inhalational_anesthetic

    An inhalational anesthetic is a chemical compound possessing general anesthetic properties that is delivered via inhalation. They are administered through a face mask, laryngeal mask airway or tracheal tube connected to an anesthetic vaporiser and an anesthetic delivery system .

  6. Fluorine compounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorine_compounds

    Lower-period elements, however, may form hypervalent molecules, such as phosphorus pentafluoride or sulfur hexafluoride. [78] The reactivity of such species varies greatly—sulfur hexafluoride is inert, while chlorine trifluoride is extremely reactive—but there are some trends based on periodic table locations. Boron trifluoride is a planar ...

  7. Hexafluoride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexafluoride

    A hexafluoride is a chemical compound with the general formula QX n F 6, QX n F 6 m−, or QX n F 6 m+. Many molecules fit this formula. Many molecules fit this formula. An important hexafluoride is hexafluorosilicic acid (H 2 SiF 6 ), which is a byproduct of the mining of phosphate rock .

  8. Pulmonary agent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulmonary_agent

    Exposure of the eyes and skin tends to be corrosive, causing blurred vision and severe deep burns. Inhalation of these agents causes burning of the throat, coughing, vomiting, headache, pain in chest, tightness in chest, and respiratory and circulatory failure. Examples of pulmonary agents include: Chlorine gas; Chloropicrin (PS) Diphosgene (DP)

  9. Halothane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halothane

    Halothane, sold under the brand name Fluothane among others, is a general anaesthetic. [5] It can be used to induce or maintain anaesthesia. [5] One of its benefits is that it does not increase the production of saliva, which can be particularly useful in those who are difficult to intubate. [5]
