· JVASP-105623· NaLi2AlF6

NaLi₂AlF₆ is a synthetic fluoride compound belonging to the class of complex metal fluorides, commonly known as cryolite-type materials. This compound is primarily used as a flux and electrolyte additive in aluminum smelting and refining processes, where it lowers the melting point of alumina and improves electrical conductivity in the molten bath. Its ability to reduce energy consumption and enhance metal purity makes it valuable in primary aluminum production, where it serves as a cost-effective alternative to natural cryolite (Na₃AlF₆), and it also finds application in specialty casting operations and fluoride salt research for advanced thermal systems.

RoHS, REACH, and Prop 65 statuses are validated against official substance lists (ECHA SVHC Candidate List, OEHHA Prop 65, RoHS Annex II). Other regulations are estimated from composition and material classification. All screening is a starting point for due diligence — always verify with your supplier before making compliance decisions.
