Calcium fluoride is an inorganic compound composed
of calcium & fluorine. Its formula is CaF2. Calcium fluoride is a primary
source of fluorine in fabrication of hydrogen fluoride and calcium sulfate. It
is a white colored solid, also known as fluorspar. It is used to manufacture
optical components such as windows & lenses, spectroscopy, thermal imaging
systems, telescopes, and excimer lasers. It is transparent over a wide range
from ultraviolet (UV) frequencies to infrared (IR) frequencies. Its low
refractive index decreases the need for anti-reflection coatings. Its
insolubility in water is appropriate as well. Additionally, doped calcium
fluoride such as natural fluorite, exhibits thermo luminescence and used in
thermo luminescent dosimeters. It is widely used in applications for instance
aluminum metallurgy, optical, glass manufacturing, production of welding
agents, and others due to its excellent thermal stability and superior
properties. It is also widely used in the production of various personal care
products.
Some side effects are included tooth discoloration,
muscle weakness, higher doses can weaken bones & ligaments, nervous system
problems and others.
Based on type, calcium fluoride market is segmented
into >
97% calcium fluoride and ≤ 97% calcium fluoride.>97%
calcium fluoride refers to acid grade fluorspar while ≤97% calcium fluoride
represents ceramic grade fluorspar and metallurgical. Based
on application, market is segmented into aluminum metallurgy, welding agents,
hydrogen fluoride, glass manufacturing, optics and others. In addition, based
on end-use industry, market is segmented into automotive, iron & steel, optical
industry, construction, chemical, and others.
The calcium fluoride market is driven by rise in
demand for aluminum products from the automotive & aerospace industry,
followed by improvement in living standard, rise in investments in
infrastructural development, growth in manufacturing & construction
activities, increase in disposable income, riseinproduction of welding agents, increase
in investments in end-use industries, rise in demand for welding joints &brake
lining products, advancements in technology and growth of residential
construction activities.
Based on geography, the Asian-Pacific region holds
major share in calcium fluoride market owing to increase in automotive
production and rapid industrialization in the region. The North-American region
is expected to witness reasonable growth due to increase in demand for glass
from the construction industry over the forecast period. Additionally, The
European region is also expected to remarkable growth as a result of rise in
demand for the product in welding joints, alumina products and brake lining
during the forecast period.
