Synthesis
Krypton difluoride can be synthesized using many different methods including electrical discharge, photochemical, hot wire, and proton bombardment. It can also be prepared by irradiating krypton with ultraviolet rays in a fluorine-argon gas mixture at liquid helium temperature. The product can be stored at −78 °C without decomposition.

Famous quotes containing the word synthesis:
“In order to begin an analysis, there must already be a synthesis present in the mind.”
—Johan Huizinga (1872–1945)
“The new shopping malls make possible the synthesis of all consumer activities, not least of which are shopping, flirting with objects, idle wandering, and all the permutations of these.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
“The invention of photography provided a radically new picture-making process—a process based not on synthesis but on selection. The difference was a basic one. Paintings were made—constructed from a storehouse of traditional schemes and skills and attitudes—but photographs, as the man on the street put, were taken.”
—Jean Szarkowski (b. 1925)
