Applications

Metallurgical grade fluorite: is used in steel, cement, glass, and ceramics.

Hydrofluoric acid: is used mainly for the production of refrigerant gases for air conditioning units.  

It is also used as a propellant, in the manufacture of gasoline, stainless steel pickling, in nuclear fuels, in the production of integrated circuits and Teflon, in salt fluoridation such as lithium salts used in batteries, and in sodium fluoridated salts used in tooth pastes and cleaning agents.

Refrigerantes:

Primary: Used as a transmitting agent in the refrigerating system, where they act in thermal interchange primarily in the form of latent heat. Refrigerating or cooling systems are mechanical devices that use the thermo-dynamic properties of the material to translate thermal energy in the form of heat between two or more focal points, as required. They are designed primarily to reduce the temperature of a product stored in refrigerating or cooling chambers, which can hold a variety of food products or chemical compounds, according to specifications.

Secondary: Acts in the intermediate thermal exchange between the primary refrigerant and external medium. Conducts the primary exchange in the form of sensible heat (sensible heat is the heat received by the substance, causing it to increase in temperature without changing its molecular structure and therefore its state).
