What is Zirconium fluoride?
Chemical properties
White powder. Slightly soluble in water and hydrogen fluoride.
The Uses of Zirconium fluoride
Zirconium fluoride is used as a zirconium source in oxygen-sensitive applications such as metal production.
The Uses of Zirconium fluoride
Component of molten salts for nuclear reactors.
The Uses of Zirconium fluoride
Zirconium tetrafluoride is used in some fluoridebased glasses. These glasses are the first chemically and mechanically stable bulk glasses to have continuous high transparency from the near uv to the mid-ir (0.3–6 μm).
What are the applications of Application
Zirconium(IV) fluoride is a zirconium source in oxygen-sensitive applications
Hazard
Strong irritant. TLV: 2.5 mg(F)/m3.
Safety Profile
Poison by intravenous route. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of F-. See also ZIRCONIUM COMPOUNDS and FLUORIDES.
