Low-grade fluorite powder is mainly used in the metallurgical and steelmaking industries. It reduces the melting point of refractory substances during smelting and enhances the malleability and tensile strength of metals. High-grade fluorite powder is mainly used in the production of fluorine chemical products such as hydrofluoric acid and aluminum fluoride. It is a crucial raw material for organic and inorganic fluorides, providing a strategic guarantee of raw materials for the development of high-tech industries.
It is mainly used in the production of aluminum smelting to decrease the melting point and enhance the electrolyte’s conductivity. It is also used as a flux and ingredient in ceramic glaze and enamel glaze, and can also serve as a flux for smelting non-ferrous metals.
It is mainly used in the chemical industry for the production of organic fluorides, fluororesins, refrigerants, decolorizing agents, and catalysts. It is used to corrode formations during the extraction of certain ore deposits. Additionally, it finds application in the metallurgical industry for the extraction of rare elements. The atomic energy industry employs it in the manufacturing of uranium hexafluoride, rocket fuel, and additives. Moreover, it is used for glass etching and wood impregnation.
