Bismuth fluoride

Description:
Bismuth fluoride, with the chemical formula BiF3 and CAS number 7787-61-3, is an inorganic compound characterized by its white crystalline appearance. It is a highly insoluble salt that forms when bismuth reacts with fluorine or hydrofluoric acid. Bismuth fluoride exhibits a high melting point and is stable under normal conditions, making it suitable for various applications in materials science and as a precursor in the synthesis of other bismuth compounds. The compound has a layered structure, which contributes to its unique properties, including its ability to act as a semiconductor. Additionally, bismuth fluoride is of interest in the field of nuclear chemistry due to its potential use in radiation shielding and as a component in certain types of nuclear reactors. While it is generally considered to have low toxicity, appropriate safety measures should be taken when handling it, as with all fluorides, due to the potential hazards associated with fluoride ions.
