This volume is concerned exclusively with the binary species formed between the elements silicon and fluorine. Most of the volume is devoted to the description of well-known physical and chemical properties of the SiF4, as well as to its preparation. This is followed in length by a report on SiF2, along with a section on the diatomic radical SiF. Species with five-fold and six-fold co-ordination of silicon are exemplified by SiF5.
