Calcium Fluoride

Calcium Fluoride powder is available as a >99.99 pure (metals basis) powder in large batch quantities for use in optical components such as prisms, lenses, and windows. Calcium Fluoride is transparent through a large range of ultraviolet to infrared frequences and its low refractive index of 1.399 at 5µm diminishes the need for additional anti-reflection coatings in applications that utilize this material. This material is also available doped with Europium, which allows it to act as a gamma ray scintillator. Lorad Chemical uses a precise manufacturing process to produce large batch quantities of consistently high-purity powder for even the most sensitive applications.
