Aluminium Hydroxide CP
Description
Aluminium hydroxide CP is supplied for industrial processing water treatment and chemical manufacturing.
Aluminium Hydroxide CP (Chemically Pure) is a white, odorless, amorphous powder with a molecular weight of 78.00 g/mol, commonly used in laboratories for analytical chemistry, as a precursor for other aluminium compounds, and as a buffering agent. It is practically insoluble in water but soluble in acids and alkalis.
Key Aspects of Aluminium Hydroxide CP
-
- Properties: Appears as a white powder with a CAS number of 21645-51-2.
- Applications: Used as a raw material for producing aluminium salts, in pharmaceutical research, water treatment, and as a flame retardant filler.
- Grade: The CP (Chemically Pure) grade indicates it is suitable for laboratory and industrial use.
- Safety: It is not typically classified as a hazardous substance, though dust inhalation should be avoided.
- Packaging: Commonly available in 500g, 1kg, or larger quantities from chemical suppliers.
This material is distinct from USP/BP (pharmaceutical) grade, as it is generally intended for laboratory, educational, or industrial, rather than direct consumer, use.
