· JVASP-104558· BaF3

Barium fluoride (BaF₃) is an inorganic ionic ceramic compound combining barium metal with fluorine, belonging to the halide ceramic family. It is primarily used in optical and optoelectronic applications where transparency to infrared and ultraviolet radiation is required, and also serves as a raw material in fluorine chemistry and specialized coatings. BaF₃ is valued for its wide optical transmission window and thermal stability, making it preferable to alternative fluoride ceramics in applications demanding broad spectral range performance.

Regulatory Screening

Environmental

RoHS, REACH, and Prop 65 statuses are validated against official substance lists (ECHA SVHC Candidate List, OEHHA Prop 65, RoHS Annex II). Other regulations are estimated from composition and material classification. All screening is a starting point for due diligence — always verify with your supplier before making compliance decisions.
