Manganese Fluoride

MnF₂ — Manganese(II) Fluoride, Manganous Fluoride

Description

Manganese fluoride is used in anti-reflective optical coatings, as a fluorinating agent in organic synthesis, and as a component in specialty glass and ceramic formulations. Its optical properties (refractive index ~1.47) make it suitable for multilayer thin-film optical coatings.

Frequently Asked Questions about Manganese(II) Fluoride

Is your MnF₂ suitable for KSF (K2SiF6:Mn4+) phosphor synthesis?

Yes. Phosphor-grade MnF₂ is supplied at 99.9% min with low Fe / Cu / Cr impurities (each < 10 ppm) — suitable as the activator-source for K2SiF6:Mn4+ red phosphors used in wide-colour-gamut LED backlights and full-spectrum lighting.

What is the standard packaging for Manganese(II) Fluoride?

Manganese(II) Fluoride is supplied in HDPE woven bags with inner LDPE liner (25 kg / 50 kg net), HDPE drums (25 / 50 / 250 kg), and FIBC jumbo bags (500 / 1000 kg) for solid grades. Liquid grades ship in HDPE-lined steel drums (250 kg) or 1000 L IBC totes. Custom packaging — including nitrogen-blanketed, moisture-tight, or food-grade containers — is available on request.

What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) and typical lead time?

Standard MOQ is 1 metric tonne for solid grades and 200 kg for liquid grades; pilot quantities of 5–25 kg are available for R&D qualification. Stock items dispatch within 7–10 working days from confirmed PO. Made-to-order grades and large export consignments require 3–4 weeks. Indian deliveries by road typically reach 4–7 days; export FCL shipments depend on destination port.

Do you provide MSDS / SDS and a Certificate of Analysis (COA)?

Yes. A 16-section GHS-format SDS is dispatched with every shipment and is also available in advance from marketing@sbfluorochem.com. A batch-specific COA accompanies every consignment and is emailed before dispatch for goods-receipt verification. Test methods follow IS / ASTM / USP / IP / EP as applicable.

Which countries do you export to and what Incoterms do you offer?

SB Chemicals exports to over 35 countries across South-East Asia, the Middle East, Africa, Europe, and the Americas. We hold IEC, GST, and APEDA registrations. Shipments move CIF / FOB / CFR / FCA / EXW from Mundra, Nhava Sheva (JNPT), or Hazira ports. Letter of Credit (LC), TT, and DA terms are accepted subject to credit approval.

Are your products manufactured to ISO 9001:2015 quality standards?

Yes. SB Chemicals operates an ISO 9001:2015 certified Quality Management System at the GIDC Vapi facility. Every batch undergoes raw-material testing, in-process control, and final QC release before despatch. Clients are welcome to schedule a third-party audit of the plant.

Product Reference Data

Chemistry & Physical Properties

Manganese(II) fluoride, formula MnF2, formula weight 92.94 g/mol. Anhydrous form is a pink-purple crystalline solid, tetragonal rutile-type crystal structure. Density 3.98 g/cm3. Melting point 856°C. Solubility in water 1.06 g/100mL at 25°C. Tetrahydrate (MnF2·4H2O) and pentahydrate forms also commercially available. Anhydrous form is hygroscopic; both forms are stable in air at room temperature.

Standards & Specifications

Industrial grades conform to generic supplier specifications. Battery-precursor grades (for cathode synthesis) target controlled iron, nickel, and copper content below 10 ppm each. Reference standards for industrial fluorides include ASTM C1191. Pharmacopeial grades not commonly specified for this compound.

Regulatory & Transport Profile

CAS 7782-64-1. Non-hazardous in standard transport classifications. Some shipping carriers classify as Class 6.1 PG III when in solution. GHS pictograms: GHS07 (harmful) at high concentrations. REACH registered (EC 231-960-9). TSCA listed. Non-restricted under RoHS — manganese compounds are permitted.

Product Information & Resources

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the colour indicate?
The pink-purple colour is intrinsic to the Mn2+ d5 electronic configuration. Discolouration to brown indicates partial oxidation to Mn3+ — should be avoided.
How is it stored?
Anhydrous form must be sealed under inert atmosphere; hydrate forms are stored in normal moisture-tight packaging. Avoid prolonged exposure to humid air.
What is the difference between the anhydrous and tetrahydrate forms?
Anhydrous MnF2 is the dry crystalline solid; tetrahydrate has 4 water molecules per formula unit. Different molecular weights, different applications.
Is it safe for ceramic glazes?
Yes — used as a glaze colourant producing pink-to-brown shades depending on firing atmosphere and temperature. Standard ceramics PPE applies.
