The reactor contains argon instead of air to minimize the presence of oxygen and moisture, which can lead to unwanted chemical reactions and corrosion. Argon is an inert gas that does not react with the materials in the reactor or the processes occurring within it, ensuring a stable environment for the reactions to take place. Additionally, using argon helps maintain the desired temperature and pressure conditions without introducing contaminants that could affect the reactor's performance.
