Abstract As the first element of halogens, fluorine is widely used in pesticides, medicine, atomic energy, rocket technology, petroleum refining and so on. It plays an irreplaceable role in many fields of production and life of human society. This paper mainly introduced the first preparation of fluorine and discovery in nature, so as to popularize and update some knowledge of fluorine chemistry. The description of typical events of fluorine was to reflect the application of philosophy and scientific research methods in chemistry.
