Fluotitanic

/ˌfluːətɪˈtænɪk/ adjective

Definition

Relating to or denoting compounds containing fluorine bonded with titanium, particularly fluotitanic acid or its derivatives.

Etymology

From 'fluotitanate' plus '-ic' (chemical suffix), describing acids and compounds formed from titanium and fluorine.

Kelly Says

Fluotitanic acid is used to etch glass and remove rust, and it's a perfect example of how combining two elements with different chemical personalities (reactive fluorine and strong titanium) creates something useful that neither could do alone.
