All about Fluorine: Properties, Color, Uses and more... 2022

Welcome to my Fluorine element data sheet page.

On this page I'll provide comprehensive data for Fluorine. I hope you profit from it.

Fluorine Overview

Name Origin

Latin: fluere (flow).

Symbol

F (Fluorine)

Description

Greenish-yellow, pungent, corrosive gas. Extremely reactive. Does not occur uncombined in nature.

Discovery

Discovered By: Henri Moissan
Year: 1886
Location: France

Sources

Found in the minerals fluorite (CaF2) and cryolite(Na3AlF6). Electrolysis of hydrofluoric acid (HF) or potassium acid fluoride (KHF2) is the only practical method of commercial production.

Uses

Used in refrigerants and other fluorocarbons. Also in toothpaste as sodium fluoride (NaF) and stannous fluoride (SnF2); also in Teflon.
