Hazard Information | Back Directory | [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 | [First aid]
If this chemical gets into the eyes, remove any contact lenses at once and irrigate immediately for at least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting upper and lower lids. Seek medical attention immediately. If this chemical contacts the skin, remove contaminated clothing and wash immediately with soap and water. Seek medical attention immediately. If this chemical has been inhaled, remove from exposure, begin rescue breathing (using universal precautions, including resuscitation mask) if breathing has stopped and CPR if heart action has stopped. Transfer promptly to a medical facility. When this chemical has been swallowed, get medical attention. Give large quantities of water and induce vomiting. Do not make an unconscious person vomit | [Shipping]

Aluminum fluoride is a white, odorless powder or granule. | [Chemical Properties]
WHITE POWDER | [Waste Disposal]
Neutralize with soda ash; add slaked lime; let stand for 24 hours. Transfer sludge to sewage facility. | [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. |
