Silicon tetrafluoride (SiF4, tetrafluorosilanee) is a binary inorganic substance obtained by the synthesis of silicon and fluorine.

  • toxic gas
  • colorless with a sharp odor
  • heavier than air
  • easily reacts with water
  • dissolves in organic solvents
  • thermally stable
  • in solid form transforms into crystals
  • in the process of producing hydrofluorosilicic acid;
  • during cleaning and etching of silicon;
  • as a source of silicon in the production of optical fiber;
  • for hydrofluorination;
  • in organic synthesis;
  • as an analogue of refrigerants (freons) in cooling systems;
  • for the production of synthetic cryolite and aluminum fluoride.
