Definition
A chemical process in which fluorine atoms are introduced into or bonded with a molecule or compound.
Etymology
From fluorine + -ation (noun suffix indicating a process or result). Emerged as a technical term in chemistry during the 20th century as fluorine chemistry developed.
Kelly Says
Fluorination is so important that it's one of the most studied reactions in chemistry—understanding how to add fluorine atoms to molecules was key to developing everything from CFCs (which broke our ozone layer) to life-saving medications.
