Sodium Fluoride, Powder, Reagent, ACS
Sodium Fluoride is an inorganic chemical compound in solid form, characterized by its colorless appearance. This versatile reagent is primarily recognized for its significant role in dentistry, where it enhances the strength of teeth by promoting the formation of fluorapatite, a crucial mineral for dental health. Typically delivered through toothpaste, Sodium Fluoride serves as an effective agent in preventing tooth decay and strengthening enamel.
As a reagent meeting the stringent requirements of ACS (American Chemical Society) standards, this high-quality Sodium Fluoride powder has been rigorously manufactured to ensure excellence and purity. It serves as a benchmark against which other substances are evaluated, making it an essential compound in both laboratory and clinical settings.
