Main Uses of Sodium Fluoride

Used as a phosphating accelerator in the coating industry to stabilize phosphating solutions, refine phosphating, and improve the performance of phosphating films. In the phosphating of aluminum and its alloys, it seals the highly harmful negatively catalytic Al3? ions, facilitating smooth phosphating. Also used as a wood preservative, agricultural insecticide, brewing industry bactericide, medical preservative, welding flux, alkaline zincate galvanizing additive, and in enamel, papermaking, etc.

Packaging of Sodium Fluoride

Net weight per bag: 25 KG, packaged in double-layer woven bags. Inner packaging uses polyethylene plastic film bags, outer packaging uses polypropylene plastic woven bags.

Storage and Transportation of Sodium Fluoride

Store the product in a ventilated, cool place, protected from sunlight, moisture, and rain.

Applications of Sodium Fluoride

1. Sodium fluoride is an important fluoride salt used as an additive in electrolytes during the startup of electrolytic cells.

2. Used as an agricultural insecticide, bactericide, and raw material for cockroach powder.

3. Used in the鑲鋼 process of mechanical blades and planer knives to lower the鑲鋼 melting point and increase welding strength.

4. Used in the manufacturing of沸騰鋼, as a treatment agent for light metal fluoride salts, and as a metal flux.

5. Used as a wood preservative, water treatment agent, ceramic pigment, and fluoride treatment agent for drinking water.

6. Used as a UF? adsorbent in the nuclear industry and for the treatment of raw hides and skins in the leather industry.

7. Used as a raw material for manufacturing other fluorides, and applied in enamel, pharmaceutical, papermaking production, and building materials industries.
