Sodium bifluoride

Sodium bifluoride (CAS 1333-83-1), also sold as sodium acid fluoride, is an inorganic fluoride salt used industrially as a pH buffer, mild acidic flux, and surface treatment agent. Its controlled fluoride release makes it effective for etching, cleaning, and corrosion inhibition across metal, mineral, and textile processing operations. In metal finishing and mining, it functions as a pickling agent.

The compound is essential for removing oxide scale and preparing metal surfaces prior to coating or further processing. Textile and leather processors use it to adjust bath pH and improve dye uptake uniformity. During fabric treatment, it ensures consistency across batches. In building and construction, it is applied to concrete and masonry surfaces as a hardening and anti-efflorescence treatment for long-term durability.

Water treatment operations use it as a source of fluoride ions for controlled dosing and pH correction in industrial effluent streams. This versatility makes it a staple in chemical manufacturing and environmental management. The product is supplied as a white crystalline powder or granules. Technical grade is the standard commercial form, with purity levels typically at 98% or higher to meet rigorous industrial specifications.
