About Germanium Tetrachloride
Germanium tetrachloride is a colourless, fuming liquid with a peculiar, acidic odour. It is used as an intermediate in the production of purified germanium metal. In recent years, GeCl₄ usage has increased substantially due to its use as a reagent for fiber optic production.
