HCID 10986Cadmium acetate

Procedure

The preparation procedure for cadmium fluoride is somewhat different. High purity cadmium metal (typically 99.999 percent pure) is reacted with acetic acid and hydrogen peroxide to yield cadmium acetate. This compound is then reacted with hydrogen fluoride to yield cadmium fluoride. The cadmium fluoride is slowly heated to the melting point in an atmosphere of carbon tetrafluoride to ensure removal of water, oxide and oxyfluoride.
