Electrochemical Fluorination and Its Applications

  • Chapter
Organofluorine Chemistry

Part of the book series: Topics in Applied Chemistry ((TAPP))

Abstract

The Simons and CAVE (or Phillips) electrochemical fluorination (ECF) processes are surveyed in this chapter, together with commercial applications of perfluorinated fluids produced by the Simons methods. Applications of ECF-derived reactive materials are covered in Chapter 14.
