Sodium Fluoride Powder
Sodium fluoride (NaF) is a white crystalline powder used primarily as a fluoridating agent in water treatment and toothpaste formulations. It falls under HTS 2826.19.20.00 as a chemically defined fluoride of sodium, distinct from complex fluorine salts. This inorganic compound is essential for dental health applications and industrial processes.
Anhydrous Sodium Fluoride
Anhydrous sodium fluoride is a dry, pure form of NaF employed in metallurgical fluxes and aluminum smelting processes. It qualifies for HTS 2826.19.20.00 as an other fluoride of sodium, adhering to Chapter 28 note on chemically defined inorganic compounds. Excludes hydrated forms if separately specified.
