The Hydrogen Fluoride (HF) Panel addresses industry issues relating to the use, manufacture, transportation, emergency response, health effects, environmental impacts and governmental regulation of Anhydrous Hydrogen Fluoride and Hydrofluoric Acid (collectively referred to as HF).
The HF Panel operates in accordance with the Guidelines and applicable by-laws, policies and procedures of the American Chemistry Council, as amended from time to time.
Hydrogen Fluoride, also known as hydrofluoric acid (HF), is an inorganic acid mainly used for producing fluorine-containing materials such as refrigerants, pharmaceutical intermediates and fluoropolymers. Other uses include metals manufacturing, glass etching and polishing, production of gasoline, stainless steel pickling, semi-conductor preparation and various applications in the chemical and specialty metal production industries.
