Aluminum hydroxide
Aluminum hydroxide, the chemical formula Al (OH) 3, is a
hydroxide of aluminum. Aluminum hydroxide can react with acid to form salt and
water and can react with strong alkali to form salt and water, so it is a kind
of amphoteric hydroxide. Chemical formula Al (OH) 3, is a hydroxide of
aluminum. Is a base, because it was a certain degree of acidity, it can be called
aluminate (H3AlO3), but the actual reaction with alkali generated is
meta-aluminate Salt, so it is usually regarded as a monohydrated meta-aluminate
(HAlO2 • H2O), according to use is divided into industrial grade and
pharmaceutical grade two. Aluminum hydroxide is white powder, the appearance of
white crystalline powder, non-toxic, tasteless, good liquidity, high whiteness,
alkali, iron content is low.
Aluminum hydroxide Usage: Aluminum hydroxide is the largest
amount and the most widely used inorganic flame retardant additives. Aluminum
hydroxide as a flame retardant can not only be flame retardant, but also to
prevent smoke, do not produce drip, do not produce toxic gases, therefore,
access to a wider range of applications, the use of the year also increased.
The use of aluminum hydroxide (CAS No.: 21645-51-2 MF:AL(OH)3)
1 aluminium hydroxide as water treatment, catalyst and catalyst carrier.
2 aluminium hydroxide flame retardant in resin, synthetic rubber and plastic industry.
3 aluminium hydroxide in glass industry to increase whiteness, transparency, glossiness and brightness.
4 aluminium hydroxide in production of waterproof fabric, printing ink, paper filler, wires and cables.
5 aluminium hydroxide as mordant in dye/painting industry for its strong adsorption capacity of coloring matter.
6 aluminium hydroxide as ceramic material.
