It is also used as a wood preservative, corrosion inhibitor, cleaning agent, insecticide, chemical reagent, and in metallurgy and glass industries. Another important application is in nuclear medical imaging, where radioactive sodium fluoride NaF 18 is used as a radiotracer for detecting various conditions.
If swallowed, it can cause abdominal pain, vomiting, diarrhea, convulsions, collapse and even lead to death. Inhalation can cause severe irritation of the respiratory tract. Skin or eye contact with solid NaF may cause serious irritation or burns to skin and eyes, severe injury or even death.
Toggle navigation. EYES: Irrigate thoroughly with water for at least 15 minutes. Obtain medical attention. SKIN: Wash thoroughly with soap and water. Dry area with clean towel. Remove contaminated clothing and wash clothing before re-use. Perform artificial respiration if breathing has stopped. When breathing is difficult, properly trained personnel may administer oxygen. Keep affected person warm and at rest. Wash out mouth thoroughly with water. Do not give carbonated drinks. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.
Obtain medical attention immediately. Avoid making dust. Do not let product enter drains. Do not discharge to the environment. Containerize any cleaning materials used for proper disposal. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Protect against physical damage. Avoid generating dust. Keep away from acids and strong bases.
Use of a laboratory coat is suggested. Safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields are required if there is any possibility of chipping or dust creation. Respirators must be worn when the threshold limit is exceeded. Provide adequate general mechanical ventilation, and local exhaust ventilation.

Fluorine gains one electron to have an octet. Formation of Positive Ion: After the electron is lost by sodium, it becomes it becomes a positive ion.
Formation of Negative Ion: After fluorine gains the electron from sodium, it becomes a negatively charged ion. The ionic bond between ions results from the electrostatic attraction of opposite charges. An ionic compound is formed by the complete transfer of electrons from a metal to a nonmetal and the resulting ions have achieved an octet.
The protons do not change. Metal atoms in Groups lose electrons to non-metal atoms with electrons missing in the outer level. Non-metals gain electrons to complete an octet. Elemental atoms generally lose, gain, or share electrons with other atoms in order to achieve the same electron structure as the nearest rare gas with eight electrons in the outer level.
