Abstract :
Sparking potential measurements are reported on some thirty-five electronegative gases. Their value as replacement gases for SF6 has been analyzed in terms of their useful pressure range at lower operating temperatures, and has been empirically correlated with molecular structures. Figures of merit have been developed.
