Alongside elemental fluoride itself, fluorinated intermediates, such as IF5, are important for our chemicals market. Solvay’s Fluor’s broad knowledge of fluorine application technologies are as vital as its production and supply of elemental fluoride.  List of applications Agent in organic chemistry Iodine pentafluoride is especially important in organic chemistry for its role in the production of alkyl iodides. Eventually, these iodides are used in the synthesis of alkylated organic compounds.   Batteries and Accumulators Chemicals   Manufacturing organic and inorganic fluorides The properties of elemental fluorine make it such that it is able to react with almost all other elements and compounds. Therefore, it is widely used as a building block for other organic and inorganic fluorides.     Back
