Specification:

 Cobalt(II) fluoride ,its cas register number is 10026-17-2. It also can be called Cobalt difluoride and Cobaltous fluoride .It is a pink crystalline solid compound. It has been shown that at 500 o C fluorine will combine with cobalt producing a mixture of CoF2 and CoF3.
 It is hazardous,so the first aid measures and others should be known. Such as: When on the skin: first,should flush skin with plenty of water immediately for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing. Secondly,Get medical aid. Or in the eyes: Flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Then get medical aid soon.

And as soon as to get medical aid. Then you have the ingesting of the product : Do not induce vomiting.If victim is conscious and alert, give 2-4 cupfuls of milk or water. Wash mouth out with water,and get medical aid immediately.
In addition, Cobalt(II) fluoride (CAS NO.10026-17-2) is moisture sensitive. It is not compatible with acids, glass, and you must not take it with excess heat and incompatible materials and not be exposured to moist air or water.And also prevent it to broken down into hazardous decomposition products: hydrogen fluoride gas, oxides of cobalt.
