What are the wide range of functions and uses of cryolite?

Cryolite is used as a flux in aluminum smelting. Cryolite is a mineral, also known as sodium hexafluoroaluminate, white monoclinic crystal system, slightly soluble in water, molten cryolite can dissolve alumina, mainly used as a co-solvent for aluminum electrolysis; It is also used as a wear-resistant additive for grinding products, which can effectively improve the abrasion resistance of grinding wheel, cutting and cutting force, and extend the service life and storage time of grinding wheel; Ferroalloy and boiling steel flux, non-ferrous metal flux, casting deoxidizer, chain olefin polymerization catalyst, as well as for glass anti-reflection coating, enamel emulsifier, glass opalescent agent, welding flux, ceramic filler, pesticide insecticide, etc.


China's crystalline products implement GB/T4291-2007 standards, but each production enterprise will work out the corresponding enterprise technical indicators according to the use and user requirements. Cryolite in the market supply is relatively tight, which has a great relationship with the manufacturer's production technology is not mature, the product can not meet the user's requirements, in addition to the use of some raw materials are also relatively tight, raw material costs are too high, such as fluorite.
