Germanium tetrachloride
open-in-new
<p>Germanium tetrachloride is a colourless, fuming liquid with a peculiar, acidic odour. It is used as an intermediate in the production of purified <a href="/facts/Germanium/wtoALHGs">germanium</a> metal. In recent years, GeCl4 usage has increased substantially due to its use as a reagent for <a href="/facts/Optical_fiber/5ruuIFbj">fiber optic</a> production. </p>
