| | ALUMINUM FLUORIDE TRIHYDRATE Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | WHITE POWDER | | Chemical Properties | Aluminum fluoride is a white, odorless powder or granule. | | Uses | Aluminum fluoride trihydrate is used as an additive for the production of aluminum by electrolysis. It is also used to inhibit fermentation and in the preparation of low index films. It serves as a flux ingredient for the removal of magnesium in the refining of aluminum scrap. Further, it is used in the manufacture of aluminum silicates, ceramics and glass. In addition, it acts as a catalyst for organic synthesis and filler in glass industry. | | Potential Exposure | Used as component of electrolyte from which aluminum metal is produced; in the manufacture of ceramics, enamels, aluminum silicate; as flux in metallurgy; as a fermentation inhibitor | | Shipping | UN3260 Corrosive solid, acidic, inorganic, n.o.s., Hazard class: 8; Labels: 8-Corrosive material, Technical Name Required. UN3077 Environmentally hazardous substances, solid, n.o.s., Hazard class: 9; Labels: 9-Miscellaneous hazardous material, Technical Name Required. | | Incompatibilities | Reacts violently with potassium or sodium | | Waste Disposal | Neutralize with soda ash; add slaked lime; let stand for 24 hours. Transfer sludge to sewage facility. |
