Discover the remarkable Cryolite, scientifically known as sodium hexafluoroaluminate or sodium aluminum fluoride. With its chemical formula Na3AlF6, this white, fine crystal boasts a higher solubility than its natural counterpart. Featuring a specific gravity of 3 and a hardness ranging between 2 and 3, it melts at a significant 1009 degrees Celsius. Cryolite is an excellent moisture absorber. It shines as a versatile component, serving as a flux in aluminum electrolysis, a robust wear-resistant filler in rubber and grinding wheels, an enamel whitening agent, and a glass sunscreen. Additionally, it functions as a metal flux and an effective insecticide for crops. The esteemed Hall-Heroult process employs cryolite-based fluoride melt to yield metallic aluminum. No other compound matches cryolite's unique properties, making it indispensable in its applications.
