Information

Magnesium Fluoride MgF2 is a compound of halogen element fluorine and metal element magnesium (also known as two Magnesium Fluoride MgF2), the molecular formula is MgF2, and the molecular weight is 62.3018.

The vapor pressure of Magnesium Fluoride MgF2 material is high, and the raw material is volatile in the open system grown by the Czochralski method, so the crystal growth process needs to be carried out under positive pressure conditions.

Colorless tetrahedral crystal or white powder, toxic. It is practically insoluble in water and ethanol, but easily soluble in nitric acid. Magnesium Fluoride MgF2 products are colorless tetragonal crystals or powders, soluble in nitric acid, slightly soluble in dilute acids, and practically insoluble in water and alcohol.

Thermocompressed Magnesium Fluoride MgF2 infrared material is a key component of the missile as an infrared window and fairing for an infrared-guided missile.
