Abstract
The global warming effects of sulphur hexafluoride (SF<sub>6</sub>) lead researchers to look for new environmentally-friendly gas media in high-voltage electrical apparatus. The present paper discusses basic chemical and electron interaction properties that brings high insulation strength and good arc interruption capability for a gas. The conclusion shows that gaseous compounds composed of elements in the upright area of periodic table of elements generally have stronger electronegative ability and good electrical properties. And double bond or triple bond in gas molecule can effectively improve the dielectric strength. For gas mixtures, good cooperation of gases will generate synergetic effect, which makes its dielectric strength higher than the weighted average value of each gas. Some aspects in searching for new arc interruption media are also discussed.
