Silvio Tattiescone Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 (edited) OK, I didn't learn this today but it's interesting. Anybody ever have Nike Air trainers? The bubble in Nike Air trainers was composed of two gasses to keep the units inflated: hexafluoroethane (Freon 116) and sulphur hexafluoride (SF6). Both are large-molecule gasses that are stable and nonflammable, making them well suited for the job at hand. In 1989, Nike went all in on SF6 and used it exclusively. The problem is, both gasses are hugely damaging to the environment. Hexafluorethane is nearly inert and thus acts as an extremely stable greenhouse gas, with an atmospheric lifetime of 10,000 years. It has a global warming potential (GWP) of 9200. CO2 has a GWP of 1. According to the IPCC, SF6 is the most potent greenhouse gas that has been evaluated, with a GWP of 23,900. Sulphur hexafluoride is inert in the troposphere and stratosphere and is extremely long-lived, with an estimated atmospheric lifetime of 800–3,200 years. Only after intense campaigning by environmentalists did Nike switch to air. Edited August 21, 2022 by Newbornbairn 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
