Fluomine is a chemical compound containing a cobalt chelate. It has the ability to form a complex with molecular oxygen (O2) and then release it upon heating.[1] Because of this ability to reversibly sorb and desorb oxygen, it has been used in high-altitude aircraft oxygen-generating systems.[2][3]
