When calcium reacts with fluorine in a synthesis reaction, calcium fluoride or CaF2 is produced. This compound is a colorless, powdery, and insoluble substance. It is used as a coating in a wide variety of industries such as the windows and lenses industries. Also, it is used in different thermal imaging equipment, spectroscopy, and lasers because of its transparency.
