Poison by subcutaneous route. A corrosive irritant to sktn, eyes, and mucous membranes. Will react with water or steam to produce toxic and corrosive fumes. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of F-. See also FLUORIDES. | [Hazardous Substances Data]
16961-83-4(Hazardous Substances Data) | [Toxicity]
LD50 oral in rat: 430mg/kg |
| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [General Description]
A colorless fuming liquid with a penetrating pungent odor. Corrosive to metals and tissue. Both the fumes and very short contact with the liquid can cause severe and painful burns. Used in water fluoridation, in hardening cement and ceramics, as a wood preservative. | [Reactivity Profile]
FLUOROSILICIC ACID(16961-83-4) can react with strong acids (such as sulfuric acid) to release fumes of toxic hydrogen fluoride. Attacks glass and materials containing silica. Reacts exothermically with chemical bases (examples: amines, amides, inorganic hydroxides). Reacts with active metals, including iron and aluminum to dissolve the metal and liberate hydrogen and/or toxic gases. Can initiate polymerization in certain alkenes. Reacts with cyanide salts and compounds to release gaseous hydrogen cyanide. Flammable and/or toxic gases are also often generated by reactions with dithiocarbamates, isocyanates, mercaptans, nitrides, nitriles, sulfides, and weak or strong reducing agents. Additional gas-generating reactions may occur with sulfites, nitrites, thiosulfates (to give H2S and SO3), dithionites (SO2), and carbonates. Can catalyze (increase the rate of) chemical reactions. Decomposes when heated to the boiling point to produce very toxic and corrosive hydrogen fluoride gas. | [Air & Water Reactions]
Fumes in air. Soluble in water with release of heat and corrosive fumes. | [Hazard]
Extremely corrosive by skin contact and
inhalation. | [Health Hazard]
Inhalation of vapor produces severe corrosive effect on mucous membrane. Ingestion causes severe burns of mouth and stomach. Contact with liquid or vapor causes severe burns of eyes and skin. | [Potential Exposure]
A solution of fluorosilicic acid is used
for sterilization in the brewing and bottling industry, elec trolytic refining of lead; electroplating, hardening cement;
removing mold, and others. | [Fire Hazard]
Special Hazards of Combustion Products: Irritating fumes of hydrogen fluoride may form in fire. | [First aid]
Move victim to fresh air. Call 911 or emergency
medical service. Give artificial respiration if victim is not
breathing. Do not use mouth-to-mouth method if victim
ingested or inhaled the substance; give artificial respira tion with the aid of a pocket mask equipped with a one-way
valve or other proper respiratory medical device.
Administer oxygen if breathing is difficult. Remove and
isolate contaminated clothing and shoes. In case of contact
with substance, immediately flush skin or eyes with run ning water for at least 20 minutes. For minor skin contact,
avoid spreading material on unaffected skin. Keep victim
warm and quiet. Effects of exposure (inhalation, ingestion
or skin contact) to substance may be delayed. Ensure that
medical personnel are aware of the material(s) involved
and take precautions to protect themselves. | [Shipping]
UN1778 Fluorosilicic acid, Hazard class: 8;
Labels: 8-Corrosive material. | [Incompatibilities]
The aqueous solution is a strong acid.
Reacts with water or steam to produce toxic and corrosive
fumes of hydrogen fluoride. Incompatible, and may react violently with: bases, aliphatic amines; alkanolamines,
alkylene oxides; aromatic amines; amides, ammonia,
ammonium hydroxide; calcium oxide; epichlorohydrin, iso cyanates, oleum, organic anhydrides; sulfuric acid; strong
oxidizers; vinyl acetate; water. Attacks glass, concrete, and
ceramics. The anhydrous form dissociates almost instantly
into silicon tetrafluoride and hydrogen fluoride. | [Chemical Properties]
Fluorosilicic acid is a transparent, colorless
fuming liquid. | [Chemical Properties]
Fluosilicic acid,H2SiF6, also known as hydrofluorosilicic acid,is a colorless liquid that is soluble in water. It is highly corrosive and toxic,attacking glass and stoneware. Fluosilicic acid is used in water fluoridation, electroplating, and in manufacturing enamels and cement.
| [Waste Disposal]

d 1.220 g cm?3 for a 25% aq solution. | [Uses]
A 1-2% solution is used widely for sterilizing equipment in brewing and bottling establishments. Other concentrations are used in the electrolytic refining of lead, in electroplating, for hardening cement, crumbling lime or brick work, for the removal of lime from hides during the tanning process, to remove molds, as preservative for timber. | [Uses]
A fluoride source with both protic and Lewis acid properties providing efficient cleavage of silicon–oxygen bonds, e.g. silyl ether
deprotection. | [Flammability and Explosibility]
Notclassified | [Industrial uses]
Hydrofluorosilicic acid (H2SiF6) is a colorless to light brown liquid. It is also manufactured
from calcium fluoride or other fluoride-containing products. Hydrofluorosilic acid
is a strong depressant for many silicates during flotation of a number of oxidic minerals.
It is used for gangue depression during flotation of tin, columbite and tantalite. | [storage]
(1) Color Code—White: Corrosive or ContactHazard; Store separately in a corrosion-resistant location.(2) Color Code—Blue: Health Hazard/Poison: Store in asecure poison location. Prior to working with this chemicalyou should be trained on its proper handling and storage.Store in a cool, dry area that is well ventilated. Protect fromdamage. Avoid acids. Concentrated solution can be storedin glass but lead is preferred. |
| Questions and Answers (Q&A) | Back Directory | [Description]
Hexafluorosilicic acid is a kind of inorganic acid. It is majorly used for the fluoridation of water in United State to minimize the incidence of dental caries and dental fluorosis. For chemical synthesis, it is majorly used for the manufacturing of aluminum fluoride and cryolite as well as many kinds of hexafluorosilicate salts. It can also be used for the production of silicon and silicon dioxide. It can also be used as an electrolyte in the Betts electrolytic process for refining lead. It is also a specialized reagent in organic synthesis for cleaving Si–O bonds of silyl ethers.
