What is Cerium(III) Fluoride?
Chemical properties
Off-white powder. Insoluble in water and acids.
The Uses of Cerium(III) Fluoride
Cerium(III) fluoride is used to make Lewis acid. It is considered to be the most effective glass polishing agent for high precision optical polishing. Cerium fluoride used as a core additive to improve the properties of the eventual weld. The fluoride provides stability to the arc and also modifies the behavior of the molten metal flowing into the weld.
The Uses of Cerium(III) Fluoride
In arc carbons to increase their brilliance; prepa- ration of cerium metal.
Hazard
An irritant.
Flammability and Explosibility
Non flammable
Safety Profile
Low toxicity by ingestion. See FLUORIDES and CERIUM COMPOUNDS. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of F-.
