[Abstract] Fluorinated materials have unique and extraordinary properties and that lead to their development and usage in all manufacturing and service sectors. The use of fluorine is no longer confined to traditional glass, metal, nuclear, fluoropolymer, pharmaceutical or agrochemical industries. New and challenging requirements next generation technologies of energy conversion, optoelectronics, semiconductors and electrical vehicle manufacturing industries have driven technological development of more advanced fluorinated materials.
Fluorine is everywhere in our daily lives from our comfortable air-conditioned rooms, offices, and kitchens to cars and hospitals. The exponential growth in all manufacturing sectors and fluorochemical industries and increased consumption of fluorinated products have resulted in depletion occurring naturally, but this limits the main resource, fluorspar. This has provided opportunities to researchers to think and work on conservation and recycling and focus on the sustainable development of the fluorochemical industry in general.
ln this paper, the important role of fluorine materials in our daily lives shall be summarized. Help from Contributions of Advance Research Chemicals, lnc. , including production of inorganic fluorides for the semiconductor industry and energy conversion will be briefly described. Actions taken by the scientific community and industry on sustainable development will also be presented.
