Chromium Fluoride

CrF₃ — Chromium(III) Fluoride, Chromic Fluoride

Description

Chromium(III) fluoride serves as a fluorination catalyst (Swarts-type reactions), a component in chromium plating baths, a textile mordant, and an additive in specialty ceramic glazes. Its catalytic properties make it valuable for producing fluorocarbon refrigerants and fluoropolymer intermediates.

Frequently Asked Questions about Chromium(III) Fluoride Tetrahydrate

Is your chromium fluoride supplied as the trihydrate, tetrahydrate, or anhydrous form?

Standard grade is the tetrahydrate (CrF₃·4H₂O, deep green crystals). Anhydrous CrF₃ and trihydrate forms can be supplied to order. Specify hydration state on the PO so we ship the correct material.

Is the product hexavalent-chromium-free?

Yes. Our CrF₃·4H₂O contains only trivalent Cr(III). Hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) is independently tested and confirmed below 5 ppm on every batch — important for REACH and RoHS-restricted markets.

Transport classification?

UN 1756, Class 8 (corrosive solid), Packing Group II. Shipped in 25 / 50 kg HDPE-lined steel drums with full IMDG / DGR / ADR documentation.

What is the standard packaging for Chromium(III) Fluoride Tetrahydrate?

Chromium(III) Fluoride Tetrahydrate is supplied in HDPE woven bags with inner LDPE liner (25 kg / 50 kg net), HDPE drums (25 / 50 / 250 kg), and FIBC jumbo bags (500 / 1000 kg) for solid grades. Liquid grades ship in HDPE-lined steel drums (250 kg) or 1000 L IBC totes. Custom packaging — including nitrogen-blanketed, moisture-tight, or food-grade containers — is available on request.

What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) and typical lead time?

Standard MOQ is 1 metric tonne for solid grades and 200 kg for liquid grades; pilot quantities of 5–25 kg are available for R&D qualification. Stock items dispatch within 7–10 working days from confirmed PO. Made-to-order grades and large export consignments require 3–4 weeks. Indian deliveries by road typically reach 4–7 days; export FCL shipments depend on destination port.

Do you provide MSDS / SDS and a Certificate of Analysis (COA)?

Yes. A 16-section GHS-format SDS is dispatched with every shipment and is also available in advance from marketing@sbfluorochem.com. A batch-specific COA accompanies every consignment and is emailed before dispatch for goods-receipt verification. Test methods follow IS / ASTM / USP / IP / EP as applicable.

Which countries do you export to and what Incoterms do you offer?

SB Chemicals exports to over 35 countries across South-East Asia, the Middle East, Africa, Europe, and the Americas. We hold IEC, GST, and APEDA registrations. Shipments move CIF / FOB / CFR / FCA / EXW from Mundra, Nhava Sheva (JNPT), or Hazira ports. Letter of Credit (LC), TT, and DA terms are accepted subject to credit approval.

Are your products manufactured to ISO 9001:2015 quality standards?

Yes. SB Chemicals operates an ISO 9001:2015 certified Quality Management System at the GIDC Vapi facility. Every batch undergoes raw-material testing, in-process control, and final QC release before despatch. Clients are welcome to schedule a third-party audit of the plant.
