Introduction

Fluorspar powder used in chemical industry generally requires calcium fluoride content of more than 97%, so most of fluorspar powder is prepared by flotation. By adding various chemical agents, calcium fluoride can be effectively collected. Fluorspar powder has very strict quality requirements, and often needs to be selected several times and collected by heating flotation.

Fluorspar powder(Fluorite powder) can be divided into dry powder and wet powder.

Acid grade fluorspar powder (CaF2≥97%) and high purity fluorspar powder are used to react with sulfuric acid to produce hydrofluoric acid and other fluorine products.

Application

(1)Metallurgical industry

It is widely used as a flux in smelting iron, Iron alloy production and non-ferrous metal smelting. Fluorite can reduce the melting point of the slag to promote the flow of a good separation of the slag and metal desulphurization in the smelting process.


(2)Chemical industry

Another important use of fluorite is to produce hydrofluoric acid. It is the key raw materials to produce a variety of organic and inorganic fluoride and fluorine. Such as refrigerant gases, propellants, etc.


(3)Building Materials Industry

Fluorite is also widely used in glass, ceramics, cement and other building materials industries.


(4)Other Uses

*Fluorite has dense structure, varied colorful. It can be used as carving material.

*Optical fiber conduction and high-precision fields.

*Electrical and electronic appliances.

*Lithium batteries and pharmaceuticals, polymers and agrochemicals.
