| Abstract from DBPedia | Hydrogen fluoride (fluorane) is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula HF. This colorless gas or liquid is the principal industrial source of fluorine, often as an aqueous solution called hydrofluoric acid. It is an important feedstock in the preparation of many important compounds including pharmaceuticals and polymers, e.g. polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). HF is widely used in the petrochemical industry as a component of superacids. Hydrogen fluoride boils at near room temperature, much higher than other hydrogen halides. Hydrogen fluoride is an extremely dangerous gas, forming corrosive and penetrating hydrofluoric acid upon contact with moisture. The gas can also cause blindness by rapid destruction of the corneas.フッ化水素（フッかすいそ、弗化水素、hydrogen fluoride）とは、水素とフッ素からなる無機化合物で、分子式が HF と表される無色の気体または液体。水溶液はフッ化水素酸 (hydrofluoric acid) と呼ばれ、フッ酸とも俗称される。毒物及び劇物取締法の医薬用外毒物に指定されている。 (Source: http://dbpedia.org/resource/Hydrogen_fluoride) |
