Fluosilicic acid, a 30% solution, is a colorless, corrosive, and fuming liquid with a strong odor. It is primarily used in water fluoridation to improve the fluoride content in drinking water. Additionally, it plays a role in metal surface treatment, cleaning, and pH adjustment in various industrial processes. Fluosilicic acid also finds applications in hardening concrete and ceramics, as well as in the processing of hides. 

Industrial Uses

1. Water Treatment

  • Fluoridation Agent: Primarily used for the fluoridation of public drinking water to help prevent dental cavities.
  • pH Adjustment: Used to lower pH in industrial water systems and wastewater treatment.

2. Pharmaceuticals

  • Raw Material for Fluoride Production: Used in the production of pharmaceutical-grade fluoride compounds (e.g., sodium fluoride).
  • Dental Care Products (Indirect): Plays a role in producing fluoride for dental rinses and toothpaste ingredients.

3. Performance Chemicals

  • Precursor for Fluorine Compounds: Used in the synthesis of cryolite, aluminum fluoride, and other fluorine-based chemicals.
  • Etching Agent: Serves as a fluorinating and etching agent in industrial chemical processes.

4. Metal Treatment

  • Metal Cleaning and Pickling: Utilized for descaling and cleaning of metal surfaces, especially in aluminum and steel industries.
  • Surface Etching: Used to prepare metal surfaces for further coating or processing.
