What this grade is for
Uniform fluorspar briquettes made from powder with an inorganic binder for controlled handling and furnace charging.
The source page emphasizes a 2.5 cm physical form and a low-sulphur, low-phosphorus metallurgical use case, so the buyer should quote shape and handling tolerance alongside grade.
- Metallurgical charging where consistent physical form helps plant operations.
- Buyers that need powder-based chemistry in a more manageable shape.
- Furnace and logistics teams that want more uniform handling than loose powder allows.
Published specification guidance
Use the table below as a buyer-facing starting point. Final chemistry, moisture, particle size, packaging, and inspection terms should still be confirmed in the sales contract.
Published briquette grade ranges| Grade | CaF2 | Additional note |
|---|
| High-end | 90% / 95% | SiO2 <7% / <5%; CaCO3 <3%; S <0.1%. |
| Normal | 85% / 80% / 75% | SiO2 <13% / <16% / <20%; CaCO3 <3% / <5% / <5%; S <0.1%. |
| Physical form | Approx. 2.5 cm diameter | Designed to support controlled handling and furnace charging. |
When briquettes are considered for furnace charging
Briquettes are relevant when a buyer needs a more uniform physical form than loose powder for handling or furnace charging. The decision should begin with the plant's charging method and material-flow requirements, not with the briquette name alone.
Published guidance describes an inorganic binder and an approximate 2.5 cm diameter. Buyers should confirm whether those physical characteristics, along with the selected CaF2 and impurity range, fit the intended process before requesting a commercial offer.
What to compare before a briquette quotation
A useful briquette comparison identifies the CaF2 range, impurity limits, binder basis, diameter, moisture, packing, and acceptable physical condition on arrival. These fields define the proposal more reliably than a product label or a single grade number.
Buyers should also agree the lot reference, sampling approach, and inspection responsibility. A COA review can then be read against the same agreed specification and shipment terms.
Buyer checklist
Before you issue an RFQ, make the request precise enough for the plant and the logistics team to quote the same thing.
- State whether the briquettes will be charged into a furnace or used as a logistics-friendly alternative to powder.
- Confirm binder expectations and whether the buyer has any restrictions on inorganic binders.
- Specify the CaF2 range, size expectation, and target impurity limits.
- Ask for packing and breakage tolerance requirements before quoting.
