C6F12O Insulation Gas

Eco-friendly SF6 alternative

Under discharge faults, C6F12O shows low decomposition tendency on Cu(111) but high on Al(111), indicating higher corrosion risk on Al electrodes.

Advantages

C-F single bond cleavage is the rate-limiting step in adsorbed C6F12O decomposition, promoted by discharge effects

After C-F breaking, C-C cleavage is significantly promoted on Al(111) but remains unfavorable on Cu(111)

Al(111) surface has higher corrosion risk from continuous decomposition
