Xenon difluoride (XeF2), also known as difluoride, has a molecular weight of 169.30g/mol, is a colorless solid that sublimes readily at room temperature to form a transparent crystal. Xenon difluoride decomposes in neutral or basic solutions, is relatively stable in acidic solutions, and has an irritating odor in aqueous solutions. Xenon difluoride vapor is colorless and has a nauseating malodor. In the electronic industry, XeF2 is often used as an etching gas for silicon, XeF2 has very high selectivity for silicon etching process because the chemical reaction between XeF2 and silicon is spontaneous, and XeF2 gas generates gaseous Xe and SiF4 by freely diffusing to the surface of the silicon substrate and chemically reacting with the outermost silicon atoms during the etching of silicon by XeF2, thereby realizing the etching of silicon. In addition, xenon difluoride is a fluorination reagent with good selectivity, and has wide application in preparation of inorganic fluorides and organic synthesis.

According to the new market research report “Global Xenon Difluoride Market Report 2023-2029”, published by QYResearch, the global Xenon Difluoride market size is projected to reach USD 0.02 billion by 2029, at a CAGR of 2.2% during the forecast period.
