Global Inorganic Fluorides Market Definition

Fluoride, that's just the fluorine ion, or F-, doing its thing. You know, like in compounds such as calcium fluoride, sodium fluoride, aluminium fluoride, potassium fluoride, and magnesium fluoride. It even teams up with metals to form bifluorides sometimes! You can find these fluoride ions hanging out in different minerals, like fluorite. Fun factsodium fluoride was the first chemical people used to fluoridate things. These fluoride salts are super useful, popping up as crucial chemical reagents and in all sorts of industrial processes. Think about it, hydrogen fluoride is key for making fluorocarbons! Now, when it comes to our bodies, fluoride is the most bioavailable form of fluorine. Plus, it's a really important micronutrient – it helps keep our teeth strong by preventing cavities and it's even used to help bones grow! Learn more about fluoride. Fluoride is a valuable resource.

To prevent or minimise tooth decay, fluoride is added to municipal water sources and dental products such as toothpaste. Fluoride is primarily consumed by drinking water and the use of fluoridated dental products, with water fluoridation accounting for 30 to 70 percent of a typical person’s total exposure. Fluoride is utilised in both consumer and commercial products, such as cleaning supplies. Workers in several occupations may be exposed to fluoride by inhalation of fluoride compounds during work.

Global Inorganic Fluorides Market Overview

Think of inorganic fluorine compounds as the building blocks for a lot of cool stuff! They're used to create everything from pharmaceutical intermediates and synthetic resins to rubber accelerators, fragrances, and even crop protection chemicals and insecticides. Because of this, the market for these compounds is expected to grow. The iron and steel industry is a major consumer, relying on them as a flux in steel production, helping to lower the melting point. In fact, they use about 6 kg/t – 8 kg/t of these compounds for cast iron production, and they're also important in creating certain ferroalloys.

You know, fluoride isn't just about toothpaste! It's used to create cryolite (Na3AlF6), a key ingredient for making aluminium. And speaking of teeth, fluoride therapy – whether applied directly or taken internally – helps fight cavities. In the lab, scientists often use fluoride salts to stop certain enzymes called serine/threonine phosphatases from working, with phosphatase inhibitors like beryllium fluoride and aluminium fluoride doing the trick. Plus, bifluoride salts (HF2-), like ammonium bifluoride and potassium bifluoride, can even etch glass surfaces. And get thisinorganic fluorine compounds act as fluorinating agents, swapping out halogens in organic chemistry reactions, especially with aliphatic halides and unsaturated compounds. They’re also utilised in unsaturated compound reactions. They’re also utilised in unsaturated compound reactions.
