Thulium (III) Fluoride (TmF3) Description:
Thulium fluoride is a white powder with no odor, insoluble in water. It is a water-insoluble Thulium source for use in oxygen-sensitive applications, such as metal production. Thulium Fluoride has specialized uses in ceramics, glass, phosphors, and lasers, also is an important dopant for fiber amplifiers and as raw material for making Thulium Metal and alloys. Thulium Fluoride is a water-insoluble Thulium source for use in oxygen-sensitive applications, such as metal production. Fluoride compounds have diverse applications in current technologies and science, from oil refining and etching to synthetic organic chemistry and the manufacture of pharmaceuticals.
