  • Abstract
    By virtue of its excellent thermodynamic, dielectric and transport properties, SF6 is widely used in the electrical industry, especially in the high voltage circuit breaker technology. However due to its high global warming potential other gases such as Air, CO2 and N2 are considered in some cases also mixed with SF6.
