  • Metal Fluorides Produced Using Chlorine Trifluoride Gas

This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution International License (CC BY). http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Abstract For developing coating materials, the fluorides of scandium, lanthanum, strontium, barium, mag- nesium and aluminum were produced from their oxides and chlorides by means of exposure to chlorine trifluoride gas at temperatures between room temperature and 700˚C. The metal chlo- rides could be easily fluorinated even at room temperature, while the metal oxides required tem- peratures higher than 300˚C. After the heating in ambient hydrogen at 1100˚C, the fluorides of lanthanum and barium showed very low weight losses at 1100˚C, although the weights of the other fluorides significantly decreased. These materials may work as protective films against corrosive and high temperature environments, particularly when using the chlorine trifluoride gas. Keywords Metal Fluoride, Metal Oxide, Chlorine Trifluoride, Synthesis, Coating Film Material 1. Introduction Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) can produce various high quality and functional material films [1]. In the CVD reactor, a film is formed not only on the substrate surface, but also on the surface of various reactor parts, such as the susceptor, gas distributor and exhaust.
