Argon is inert under most conditions and forms no confirmed stable compounds at room temperature. Although argon is a noble gas, it has been found to have the capability of forming some compounds.

Industrial Use
  • Inert Gas - Argon is used in some high-temperature industrial processes, where ordinarily non-reactive substances become reactive.
  • Used in electric bulbs, welding, cutting and in various types of metal inert gas welding such as tungsten inert gas welding, as well as in the processing of titanium and other reactive elements.
  • An argon atmosphere is also used for growing crystals of silicon and germanium.
  • Argon is also available in aerosol-type cans, which may be used to preserve compounds such as varnish, polyurethane, paint, etc. for storage after opening.
Medical Use
  • Cryosurgery procedures such as cryoablation use liquefied argon to destroy cancer cells. In surgery it is used in a procedure called "argon enhanced coagulation" which is a form of argon plasma beam electrosurgery.Blue argon lasers are used in surgery to weld arteries, destroy tumors, and to correct eye defects.
Use in Food Industry
  • Preservative - Argon is used to displace oxygen and moisture-containing air in packaging material to extend the shelf-life of the contents.
