About Hydrofluoric acid, 40%

Hydrofluoric acid is a synthetic reagent in Synthesis grade carrying the CAS registry number 7664-39-3, specified at 40% purity. The compound has the formula FH, corresponding to a molecular weight of 20.01 g/mol. Systematically, it is named fluorane. It is also known as fluoric acid or fluorhydric acid.

The product is provided as a liquid. Key physical data: a density of 1.15 g/mL at 25 °C. Keep containers tightly closed in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat and ignition sources. The GHS classification uses the signal word “Danger”, so appropriate gloves, eye protection and ventilation are recommended.

It is commonly used for organic synthesis, reaction development, medicinal chemistry and biological staining. Typical end-use sectors are academic and industrial research and metallurgy and mining.

Standard pack sizes are 500 mL, 5 L, 4 x 25 kg and 160 kg, and every batch ships with a Certificate of Analysis (COA) and we export worldwide.
