Application

Potassium fluoride (KF) occurs naturally as the mineral carobbiite. It is mainly used as a fluorinating agent in chemical industries to produce a wide-range of fluorinated compounds by selective fluorination reactions. It also finds application in the electronic industry as a metal surface treatment product. Upon post-deposition treatment of KF in CuInGaSe2 (CIGS) based thin-film solar cells, power conversion efficiency is enhanced. This surface modification has a direct influence on solar cell performance leading to an increase in open-circuit voltage, fill factor, and net charge carrier density of the cell.

KF can also be used as:
  • A fluxing agent in the field of metallurgy for metal-joining operations, including welding, soldering, and brazing.
  • An etching agent in the manufacture of some optical glasses.
  • An additive in the formation of single crystals to change the crystal structure, crystal size, and crystal morphology.
A versatile fluoride ion source used in a study of ion-specific swelling and de-swelling of ampholytic polymer gels, in the room temperature oxidation of noble metals in HF, and in the measurement of electronic polarizabilities of ions in polymers of alkali halides.
