CG MATERIAL

Praseodymium fluoride Powder (PrF3), CAS No 13709-46-1

Praseodymium fluoride Powder (PrF3), CAS No 13709-46-1

Praseodymium Fluoride (PrF3) Powder is a chemical compound composed of the rare earth element praseodymium and the halogen fluorine. It is a white, odorless powder that is insoluble in water but soluble in acids.

PrF3 powder has various applications in fields such as optics, electronics, and catalysis. For instance, it can be used as a dopant material in glass and ceramic compositions for lasers and fiber optics, as a catalyst for various chemical reactions, and as a phosphor material for LED lighting.
