Product Description

Application

Aluminum fluoride (AlF3) serves critical functions across diverse industries, anchored by its dominant role in aluminum production. As an essential additive in cryolite-based electrolytes, it optimizes bath chemistry for energy-efficient electrolytic smelting by lowering melting points and enhancing conductivity. Beyond metallurgy, AlF3 acts as a fluorinating agent in synthesizing fluorocarbons, refrigerants, and agrochemicals, while catalyzing petrochemical processes like alkylation.

In materials science, it modifies viscosity and optical properties in specialty glasses and ceramics, functioning as a flux for infrared optics and enamel coatings. The battery industry applies ultra-pure AlF3 coatings to lithium-ion cathodes to extend cycle life and improve thermal stability. Environmentally, it enables dry scrubbing systems that capture hydrogen fluoride emissions from smelters, converting pollutants into reusable bath material.

Product Description

Aluminum fluoride is a white or colorless crystalline powder. It has a low melting point and is soluble in acids and alkalis.

Aluminium fluoride has significant applications in industry. During the smelting process of aluminium, aluminium fluoride is often used as a flux, which can lower the melting point of aluminium oxide and enhance the efficiency and quality of electrolytic aluminium. Additionally, it is employed as an additive in industries such as ceramics, glass, and enamel, which can improve the performance and quality of the products.

 

In the field of chemical synthesis, aluminium fluoride sometimes participates in some organic and inorganic reactions as a catalyst or reactant.

 

It should be noted that aluminium fluoride has certain irritancy and toxicity. During the production, usage, and storage processes, relevant safety regulations and operation procedures need to be followed to prevent harm to the human body and the environment.
