Potassium Fluoborate (KBF₄)
Potassium Fluoborate (Potassium Tetrafluoroborate) is a high-stability inorganic salt consisting of potassium and tetrafluoroborate ions. Mars Chemical Corporation produces this essential chemical as a white crystalline powder, valued for its low solubility in water and its ability to provide controlled fluoride ions during high-temperature metallurgical processes.
It serves as a vital flux in Aluminum and Magnesium refining to remove impurities and enhance metal quality. Additionally, it is a preferred component in the Electroplating industry for tin and aluminum plating baths, and acts as a performance-enhancing filler in bonded abrasives and grinding wheels. Its chemical stability makes it an ideal ingredient for specialized welding fluxes.
