Product Description
When your research demands uncompromising purity, Magnesium Fluoride, Puratronic™, 99.99% from eqipped delivers the precision you need. This high-purity chemical is meticulously processed to meet the strictest laboratory standards, making it a trusted choice for optical applications, spectroscopy, and semiconductor research.
Magnesium fluoride is widely recognized for its exceptional transparency across a broad spectral range, from ultraviolet to infrared. Its low refractive index and high resistance to thermal shock make it indispensable in thin-film coatings for lenses, windows, and other optical components. Whether you’re working on advanced photonics or materials science, this Puratronic™ grade ensures minimal impurities, so your results remain accurate and reproducible.
At eqipped, we understand that researchers and educators need reliable materials without compromise. That’s why we source this magnesium fluoride from Thermofisher, a leader in high-purity chemicals, and make it available in convenient pack sizes (50g, 10g, and 2g) to suit both large-scale projects and small experiments.

Key Applications
This ultra-pure magnesium fluoride is ideal for:
- Optical coatings for lenses and mirrors
- Infrared and UV spectroscopy
- Semiconductor manufacturing and research
- Laser components and photonics
- High-temperature ceramic applications
Why This Grade Matters
The Puratronic™ designation guarantees a minimum purity of 99.99% (metals basis), meaning trace impurities are reduced to negligible levels. This is critical for applications where even minor contaminants can skew results or degrade performance. Unlike lower-grade alternatives, this magnesium fluoride ensures consistency in thin-film deposition, optical clarity, and chemical stability.
For students and researchers, this means fewer experimental variables to account for and more confidence in your data. Educators can rely on it for demonstrations that require high-purity materials, ensuring students learn with the best tools available.
Handling and Storage
While magnesium fluoride is generally stable, proper handling ensures longevity and safety. Store the powder in a cool, dry place, away from moisture and incompatible substances. Use standard lab safety gear, including gloves and goggles, when handling. For long-term storage, keep the container tightly sealed to prevent contamination.
Risk Note
Magnesium fluoride is non-toxic under normal conditions but may cause irritation if inhaled or in contact with skin. Avoid ingestion and ensure proper ventilation when handling. In case of accidental exposure, rinse thoroughly with water and seek medical advice if irritation persists.
FAQs
What is the difference between Puratronic™ and standard-grade magnesium fluoride?
Puratronic™ magnesium fluoride undergoes rigorous purification to achieve 99.99% purity (metals basis), eliminating trace impurities that could interfere with sensitive applications. Standard grades may contain higher levels of contaminants, making them unsuitable for optical or high-precision uses.
Can this magnesium fluoride be used for thin-film deposition?
Yes, its high purity and consistent particle size make it ideal for physical vapor deposition (PVD) and other thin-film techniques. It’s commonly used in anti-reflective coatings for lenses and optical filters.
Is this product suitable for educational labs?
Absolutely. The small pack sizes (2g and 10g) are perfect for classroom demonstrations and student experiments, providing a cost-effective way to introduce high-purity materials in academic settings.
How should I dispose of unused magnesium fluoride?
Follow local regulations for chemical waste disposal. Magnesium fluoride is not hazardous, but it’s best to consult your institution’s safety guidelines for proper disposal methods.
