Copper(II) borofluoride Usage And Synthesis

Chemical PropertiesCopper(II) tetrafluoroborate, Cu(BF4)2, [38465-60-0], MW 237.15, is also known as copper fluoborate. It is usually sold as a concentrated solution and it is prepared by the neutralization of tetrafluoroboric acid with basic copper(II) carbonate or copper(II) hydroxide.
UsesCopper(II) borofluoride is used primarily in the circuit board industry and in copper plating.
General DescriptionDark-blue odorless aqueous solution. Sinks and mixes with water.
Air & Water ReactionsMixes with water.
Reactivity ProfileCopper(II) borofluoride may corrode some metals [USCG, 1999].
Health HazardInhalation of mist irritates nose and throat. Ingestion causes pain and vomiting. Contact causes severe irritation of eyes and irritation of skin.
Fire HazardSpecial Hazards of Combustion Products: Irritating hydrogen fluoride gas may form in fires.
