- the autoclave was then removed from the cooling bath and the resulting gaseous mixture of hydrogen chloride and phosphorus pentafluoride passed over the lithium fluoride in the experimental reactor. After completion of the transfer of the gas mixture again 7.8 g of LiF were added to the experimental reactor to the resulting lithium hexafluorophosphate. Analogously to the above preparation, a gas mixture of hydrogen chloride and phosphorus pentafluoride was again generated and passed over the mixture of lithium hexafluorophosphate and lithium fluoride.
