Abstract
Fluorination of difluoromethane (CF2H2), trifluoromethane (CF3H), and pentafluoroethane (C2F5H) with cobalt trifluoride has been experimenta lly studied. The catalytic and inhibiting role of hydrogen fluoride (H F) has been examined. A catalysis mechanism has been proposed. The tem perature interval in which HF influences the process has been determin ed. The role of diffusion of the reactants through the bed of the form ing solid reaction product, cobalt difluoride, has been examined.
