Application

A versatile fluoride ion source used in a study of ion-specific swelling and de-swelling of ampholytic polymer gels, in the room temperature oxidation of noble metals in HF, and in the measurement of electronic polarizabilities of ions in polymers of alkali halides.
Potassium fluoride may be employed for doping the natural calcium phosphate (NP) for high yield synthesis of activated alkenes.
