Fluxing agents

Are we able to describe impurities (such as CaCl2 in the down cell to lower the melting temp of NaCl) as a fluxing agent?

Never heard of the term (and I haven't studied metallurgy yet), so probably play it safe and stay within VCELand :)

I wouldn't call it an impurity. It is probably best to describe them in terms of their function, or just call them by their chemical names.
