Fluorination Technology
The fluorination expertise Dow AgroSciences developed covers wide range of patented processes on fluorination of Pyridines and Picolines. They are:
- Vapor phase catalyzed fluorination
- Liquid phase catalyzed fluorination
- Halex exchange reactions
We can fluorinate with either hydrogen fluoride or potassium fluoride.
In order to obtain high quality intermediates of 98% or better purity, we distill the desired products.
Our emphasis on safety always comes first when handling HF and fluorinated pyridines. Our know-how on reactor technology, materials of construction, process control, process modeling and waste management is second to none.
