Sodium monofluorophosphate (MFP) is an inorganic compound widely used as a fluoride source in dental care products and industrial applications. It provides a stable and effective means of delivering fluoride ions for cavity prevention while being less irritating than sodium fluoride in some formulations.
Molecular Weight: 143.95 g/mol
Appearance: White crystalline powder or granules
Solubility:
Freely soluble in water
Insoluble in organic solvents (e.g., ethanol, acetone)
pH (1% solution): ~7.5-8.5 (mildly alkaline)
Fluoride Content: ~13.2% (by weight)
Dental Care (Primary Use)
Toothpaste & Mouthwash: Slowly releases fluoride ions to strengthen tooth enamel and prevent cavities (often combined with abrasives like silica).
Less Irritating: Preferred over NaF in some formulations due to lower mucosal irritation.
Compatibility: Works well with calcium-based abrasives (unlike NaF, which may form insoluble
Industrial Uses
Metal Surface Treatment: Used in coatings and corrosion inhibitors.
Glass & Ceramics: Acts as a flux in manufacturing processes.
Water Treatment
Alternative fluoride source in some fluoridation systems
