As a fully fluorinated methane derivative, this colorless gas is characterized by its exceptional chemical stability and inertness under standard conditions. Our facility provides high-purity grades suitable for demanding industrial applications ranging from microelectronics fabrication to advanced organic synthesis. The compound serves as a foundational element in the production of various fluorinated materials, ensuring consistent performance in critical processes.

Technical Specifications

Industrial Applications

The versatility of Tetrafluoromethane makes it indispensable across multiple high-tech sectors. In the semiconductor industry, it is primarily utilized as a plasma etching gas for silicon dioxide and polysilicon layers, enabling precise circuit patterning. Furthermore, its thermal stability allows for use in refrigeration systems where non-flammability is a paramount safety requirement. In chemical research and development, it acts as a key building block for synthesizing complex fluorinated compounds, supporting innovations in pharmaceuticals and new material science. Our supply chain ensures that researchers and manufacturers receive material that meets rigorous quality benchmarks.

Safety and Handling

While Tetrafluoromethane is non-flammable and generally stable, proper handling protocols must be observed to ensure workplace safety. The gas is incompatible with reactive metals such as zinc, alkaline earth metals, and aluminum alloys, which may lead to hazardous reactions under specific conditions. Storage facilities should be well-ventilated, maintained at low temperatures, and kept dry to prevent moisture accumulation. It is crucial to store cylinders separately from flammable materials and sources of ignition. Personnel should be equipped with appropriate personal protective equipment when handling high-pressure gas cylinders to mitigate risks associated with rapid decompression.
