MainchinChemicalsGroup, is one of the leadingglobal supplier of Aluminium Fluoride (AlF3)in both LBD and HBD grades. We are one Stop Shop for AluminiumFluoride (LBD and HBD).
AluminiumFluoride (AlF3)â LBD and HBD is one of the important key material and used as fluxin the production of primary Aluminium metal and manufactured throughdry process using Fluorspar and Aluminium Hydrate as a raw material.In this process, high density Aluminium fluoride is produced which ispreferred for modern Aluminium smelters in world. Thisis of critical importance as it lowers electricity consumption duringthe smelting process. Consequently, primary Aluminium Smelters arethe biggest users of Aluminium Fluoride.
Itis also used in few locations as an additive to Aluminium Metalcrucible before entering into the cast house furnaces to reducealkali metals like Sodium and/or Lithium, and Ceramic industries.
OurAluminium Fluoride can improve the quality of aluminium ingots andreduce production costs because of their high fluorine content andlow impurity content.
Wecan supply Aluminium Fluoride as per customers requirement and theproduct specifications given below for HBD and LBD grade is forreference and further customisation can be possible.

Application
Aluminiumfluoride is an important additive for the production of aluminium byelectrolysis. Together with cryolite,it lowers the melting point to below 1000 °C and increases theconductivity of the solution.It is into this molten salt that aluminium oxide is dissolved andthen electrolyzed to give bulk Al metal.
