Potassium Bifluoride

Product Information

Potassium Bifluoride is a water insoluble Potassium source for use in oxygen-sensitive applications, such as metal production. In extremely low concentrations (ppm), fluoride compounds are used in health applications. Fluoride compounds also have significant uses in synthetic organic chemistry. Potassium bifluoride is the inorganic compound with the formula K[HF2]. This colourless salt consists of the potassium cation (K+) and the bifluoride anion ([HF2]−). The salt is used as an etchant for glass. Sodium bifluoride is related and is also of commercial use as an etchant as well as in cleaning products.

Synonyms

Potassium hydrogen difluoride, Potassium hydrogendifluoride, Potassium acid fluoride, Hydrogen potassium fluoride
