Aluminium Fluoride - AlF3 (High Bulk Density)
It is one of the important key material for the production of Aluminium metal and manufactured through dry process using Fluorspar and Aluminium Hydrate as a raw material. In this process, high density Aluminium fluoride is produced which is preferred for modern Aluminium smelters in world.
It is also used in few locations as an additive to Aluminium Metal crucible before entering into the cast house furnaces to reduce alkali metals like Sodium and/or Lithium, and Ceramic industries.
