There is a very dangerous chemical compound that can be used to ignite even glass

Chemists are trying to deal with him seldom delo



One of the strangest and perhaps the most dangerous man-made substance on Earth - chlorine trifluoride. This stunning cocktail of fluorine and chlorine was introduced in 1930, and since then the wise chemists are trying to do without it. The substance is usually a colorless, odorless gas is very toxic, very caustic - so pungent that reacts violently with substances normally considered safe.

The liquid is able to ignite chlorine trifluoride glass, sand, asbestos and most metals. In addition, it reacts with organic substances, in particular those that comprise plants and humans. To make matters worse, gas emitted during the combustion of chlorine trifluoride, is even more toxic than the substance itself.

This chemical compound - a thing so unpleasant that working with him were not even the Nazis from the research division of chemical weapons during World War II. The well-known American expert on rocket fuel, John Drury Clarke once said that the best way to combat chlorine trifluoride - it's quick feet.

However, the material used in the semiconductor industry, primarily for the treatment of chemical deposition in the chambers for the manufacture of integrated circuits that are needed for a modern electronics.
