Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.
The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Description of key information
Based on the primary information sourced from CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics, aluminum fluoride was reported to sublime at 1276°C (corresponding to 1549.15 K). The atmospheric pressure was not reported.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
Information regarding melting/freezing point of aluminum fluoride was sourced from CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics (81st Ed.), known to contain peer-reviewed data of Klimisch-2 reliability, which reports that the test substance sublimes at 1276°C. However, based on the information obtained from secondary sources such as Dangerous Properties of Industrial Materials (7thEd.) and the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) the test substance melts at 1291°C. These data, although conflicting, both agree that given the high temperatures at which the test substance sublimes or melts, it is considered to be a non-volatile solid. Additionally, considering that the data obtained from the secondary sources are non-peer-reviewed and of Klimisch-4 reliability, they have not been included in this assessment.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
