Thulium(III) fluoride
Thullium fluoride is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula TmF3.
Production
It can be produced by reacting thulium(III) sulfide and hydrofluoric acid, followed by thermal decomposition:Thulium(III) oxide reacts with fluorinating agents such as hydrogen fluoride, nitrogen trifluoride xenon difluoride to create thullium fluoride as well, although the reaction with nitrogen trifluoride is incomplete and produces a mixture of TmOF and TmF3.
