Quartz Fluorine Tube
A Quartz Fluorine Vessel is a specialized contained built to hold and view fluorine, the most reactive and electronegative substance known. The preparation of these vessels is delicate and labor intensive. Most containers designed to hold fluorine are lined with Teflon because of its almost non-existent reactivity. The clear substrate onto which the Teflon or another fluorocarbon must be applied is a high-purity, single crystal quartz tube.

Famous quotes containing the word tube:
“The last best hope of earth, two trillion dollars in debt, is spinning out of control, and all we can do is stare at a flickering cathode-ray tube as Ollie “answers” questions on TV while the press, resolutely irrelevant as ever, asks politicians if they have committed adultery. From V-J Day 1945 to this has been, my fellow countrymen, a perfect nightmare.”
—Gore Vidal (b. 1925)
