  • Chemical Elements and Compounds
  • Compartment - Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission
Universal entry(ies)
DEF

A chemical compound having the formula HF which appears under the form of a colorless, fuming gas or liquid, is very soluble in water, is derived by distillation from the reaction product of calcium fluoride and sulfuric acid, also from fluosilicic acid, and is used as a catalyst in alkylation, isomerization, condensation, dehydration, and polymerization reactions, as a fluorinating agent in organic and inorganic reactions, in the production of fluorine and aluminum fluoride, as an additive in liquid rocket propellants and in the refining of uranium.

OBS

Compare with "hydrofluoric acid", which is hydrogen fluoride in aqueous solution.
