Description
Aluminum sulfate is a chemical compound with the formula Al₂(SO₄)₃. It is a white crystalline solid in its anhydrous form and becomes octadecahydrate (Al₂(SO₄)₃·18H₂O) when hydrated . This compound is widely used in various industries due to its distinctive physical and chemical properties. It is primarily used as a coagulating agent in the purification of drinking water and wasteWater treatment plants, and also in paper manufacturing.
Application
Chemistry:Aluminum sulfate is extensively used in water treatment plants to promote coagulation, facilitating the removal of small particles suspended in the water . It reacts with bicarbonate alkalinity present in water to form an insoluble aluminum hydroxide precipitate, which can be easily filtered out.
Biology and Medicine:In medicine, this compound is used as a coagulating agent in minor cuts and abrasions . It is also used in the preparation of aluminum acetate ear drops.
Paper Industry:this compound plays a crucial role as a sizing agent, helping to regulate the penetration of ink.
Textile Industry:Used as a mordant in dyeing and printing textiles, ensuring the color is set and does not wash out.
Soil Amendment:this compound is used to lower the pH of soil, making it more acidic for plants that thrive in such environments.
