CAS 7782-64-1

Chemical Formula MnF2

Molecular Weight 92.93 g/mol

Manganese fluoride (MnF₂) is a light pink, crystalline, ionic compound. It's commonly referred to as manganese(II) fluoride. Manganese fluoride is produced by treating manganese and its various compounds with hydrofluoric acid. It is used in the manufacture of special types of glass and lasers.

Industrial Uses

1. Metal Treatment

  • Additive: Manganese fluoride (MnF₂) acts as an additive in metal production, primarily in metallurgy and alloy production. It can enhance certain properties, such as strength, corrosion resistance, and machinability, and is also used for deoxidation.
  • Impurities Removal: In some cases, manganese fluoride is used in fluxes to remove impurities like magnesium from molten aluminum. This is because the flux can help separate magnesium oxide from the aluminum melt, allowing for its removal.

2. Performance Chemicals

  • Fluorinating Agent: Manganese fluoride are used to convert hydrocarbons into fluorocarbons. For instance, MnF3 is a red/purplish solid useful for converting hydrocarbons into fluorocarbons, making it a fluorination agent.
  • Precursor: Manganese fluoride is synthesized as a precursor, which then serves as a source for the preparation of [MnF₆]²⁻ complexes in the synthesis of phosphor.
