description Product Description
- Used in molten salt systems for heat transfer and energy storage in high-temperature industrial processes.
- Common component in fluoride-based fluxes for aluminum smelting, helping reduce melting temperature and improve efficiency.
- Employed in the ceramics and glass industries to lower melting temperatures and enhance corrosion resistance.
- Popular in fireworks and phosphorescent materials for producing bright red colors in flames.
- Serves as a solid-state electrolyte material in advanced lithium-ion and solid-state batteries.
- Employed in radiation detection and protection due to its sensitivity to neutron and gamma radiation and ability to absorb neutrons, especially in dosimeters, detectors, and nuclear power plant shielding.
- Utilized in optical components such as windows and lenses for UV and infrared spectroscopy because of its wide transparency range.
- Added to dental products and drinking water in some regions for caries prevention, though less common than other fluoride compounds.
