P10 Gas (Argon + Methane Mix)
P10 Gas (Argon + Methane Mix)
P10 Gas is a specialty gas mixture consisting of Methane (CH₄) in Argon (Ar), commonly supplied as a 10% Methane and 90% Argon mixture. It is widely used as a detector gas in Gas Chromatography (GC), particularly with Flame Ionization Detectors (FID), and in specialized analytical and laboratory applications. The controlled composition of P10 Gas provides stable and repeatable detector performance.
