Description Uranium hexafluoride has a molecular formula of UF6. It is a colorless, volatile crystal that sublimes and reacts vigorously with water. It is highly corrosive and is a radiation risk. The four-digit UN identification number for fissile material containing more than 1% of uranium 235 is 2977; for lower specific activity, the number is 2978. Uranium hexafluoride is used in a gaseous diffusion process for separating isotopes of uranium.
Physical properties White monoclinic crystals; density 5.09 g/cm3; melts at 64°C (triple point); sublimes at 56.6°C; critical temperature 232.65°C; critical pressure 46 atm; critical volume 250 cm3/mol; reacts with water forming UO2F2 and HF; soluble in chloroform, carbon tetrachloride and fluorocarbon solvents; soluble in liquid chlorine and bromine; dissolves in nitrobenzene to form a dark red solution that fumes in air.
Uses Uranium hexafluoride is used in uranium processing because its unique properties make it very convenient. It can conveniently be used as a gas for processing, as a liquid for filling or emptying containers or equipment, and as a solid for storage, all at temperatures and pressures commonly used in industrial processes. Gaseous diffusion process for separating isotopes of uranium.
