Description
This book summarizes recent progresses in inorganic fluorine chemistry. Highlights include new aspects of inorganic fluorine chemistry,
such as new synthetic methods, structures of new fluorides and oxide fluorides, their physical and chemical properties, fluoride catalysts,
surface modifications of inorganic materials by fluorination process, new energy conversion materials and industrial applications.
Fluorine has quite unique properties (highest electronegativity; very small polarizability). In fact, fluorine is so reactive that it
forms fluorides with all elements except with the lightest noble gases helium, neon and argon. Originally, due to its high reactivity,
fluoride chemistry faced many technical difficulties and remained undeveloped for many years. Now, however, a large number of fluorine-containing
materials are currently produced for practical uses on an industrial scale and their applications are rapidly extending to many fields.
Syntheses and structure analyses of thermodynamically unstable high-oxidation-state fluorides have greatly contributed to inorganic
chemistry in this decade. Fluoride catalysts and surface modifications using fluorine are developing a new field of fluorine chemistry
and will enable new syntheses of various compounds. The research on inorganic fluorides is now contributing to many chemical energy conversion
processes such as lithium batteries. Furthermore, new theoretical approaches to determining the electronic structures of fluorine compounds
are also progressing. On the industrial front, the use of inorganic fluorine compounds is constantly increasing, for example, in semi-conductor
industry.
"Advanced Inorganic Fluorides: Synthesis, Characterization and Applications" focuses on these new features in inorganic
fluorine chemistry and its industrial applications. The authors are outstanding experts in their fields, and the contents of the book
should prove to be of valuable assistance to all chemists, graduates, students and researchers in the field of fluorine chemistry.
