General description

Sodium biphenyl reagent is used to cleave the covalent fluorine bonds in organic compounds and biological samples. The liberated fluoride ions are determined spectrophotometrically or with the fluoride ion electrode.

Application

Sodium biphenyl can be used as a reagent:
  • for the decomposition of perfluorinated surfactants into inorganic fluoride ions, which facilitates their detection via fluorimetric flow injection analysis.
  • as a sodiation reagent in sodium-ion batteries (SIBs), in the chemical presodiation process for hard carbon (HC) anodes, enhancing their initial Coulombic efficiency.
