Product Description
Aluminum sulfate is a white crystalline solid with the chemical formula Al₂(SO₄)₃. It is often found in a hydrated form. It is an inorganic compound whose composition includes aluminum, sulfur, and oxygen. The high solubility of aluminum sulfate in water has made it very versatile; hence, it serves very many industrial and municipal uses.
One of the most common applications of aluminum sulfate is in the purification of water. In purifying water in municipal treatment plants, it is used as a coagulant that promotes the elimination of impurities in that manner when it forces the small particles to combine into larger particles, forming flocs.
Aluminum sulfate is also employed in the paper manufacturing industry, where it controls the pH of the pulp and acts as an impurity that makes the paper stronger and whiter. It is also used in the textile industries where it is applied to the fabrics for the purpose of dyeing or printing. In this case, aluminum sulfate acts as a mordant, thus enabling the dyes to be held with the fibers.
