Aluminum Chloride in Water
Upon dissolving aluminum chloride in water, hydrolysis occurs, yielding aluminum hydroxide and hydrochloric acid. This reaction is expressed as:
AlCl3 + 3H2O → Al(OH)3 + 3HCl
The resultant aluminum hydroxide may polymerize, generating distinct species. These aid coagulation and enhance flocculation during water treatment, eliminating particles and impurities. Hydrolysis yields hydrochloric acid, impacting solution acidity. Aluminum chloride’s water treatment efficacy hinges on concentration, pH, and water chemistry.
Pricing hinges on factors like purity, quantity, supplier, and market conditions. Various grades may also affect costs. Due to this complexity, precise pricing isn’t feasible without details. For current rates, kindly reach out with your aluminum chloride specifics.
Aluminium chloride is packaged in
25Kg/Bag, two layers bag, inner is plastic pp bag, outside is wooven bag
The chemical formula is AlCl3. This formula indicates the composition of the compound. It consists of one aluminum atom (Al) and three chloride atoms (Cl). The subscript 3 indicates that there are three chloride atoms for every one aluminum atom in the compound.
