Fluorine-30 is a radioisotope of the chemical element fluorine, which has 21 neutrons in its atomic nucleus in addition to the element-specific 9 protons, resulting in a mass number of 30. The very short-lived, only artificially produced, unstable and thus radioactive nuclide has no practical significance; the study of 30F is exclusively for academic purposes.
The neutron-rich nuclide decays to Fluorine-29, releasing a neutron.
