Chromium Fluoride CrF3 products, namely three Chromium Fluoride CrF3 products, are inorganic compounds with chemical formula CrF3 and their various hydrates. Anhydrous tri-Chromium Fluoride CrF3 products are green crystals that are insoluble in common solvents, but their hydrates [Cr(H2O)6]F3 and [Cr(H2O)6]F3·3H2O are soluble in water. The trihydrate is green, while the hexahydrate is purple. Anhydrous salts sublime when heated to 1100–1200°C. Chromium Fluoride CrF3 products have molecular formula 108.99, green rhombohedral crystal, relative density 3.80, melting point 1000℃; CrF3 4H2O molecular formula 181.05, green crystalline powder, relative density 3.78; CrF3 9H2O molecular formula 271.13, green powder. All three are toxic, slightly soluble in water, soluble in hydrochloric acid, and insoluble in ethanol.

Chromium trichloride is heated to 600 ℃ in hydrogen fluoride flow to obtain anhydrous hydrate; hydrated tri-Chromium Fluoride CrF3 products can be obtained by reacting chromium hydroxide with hydrofluoric acid. Used as fluoride agent, moth repellant and wool fabric mordant, etc.

Chromium Fluoride CrF3 products are an important trivalent chromium salt widely used as moth repellant for fabrics, mordant for wool, industrial disinfectants, colorants for marble, metal polishes, as well as catalysts and fluorinating agents for organic synthesis . It is usually prepared by heating chromium chloride in a stream of hydrogen fluoride. This method has harsh conditions, special equipment, serious equipment corrosion and harsh working environment.
