Aluminum sulfate

Description:
Aluminum sulfate, with the CAS number 10043-01-3, is an inorganic compound commonly encountered as a white crystalline solid. It is highly soluble in water, forming a solution that is acidic in nature. This compound is primarily used in water purification processes, paper manufacturing, and as a mordant in dyeing and printing textiles. Aluminum sulfate acts as a coagulant, facilitating the aggregation of suspended particles in water, which aids in their removal during treatment. It has a relatively low toxicity, making it suitable for various applications, including food processing and pharmaceuticals. The compound typically exists as a dodecahydrate, meaning it contains twelve water molecules per formula unit, although it can also be found in an anhydrous form. In terms of chemical reactivity, aluminum sulfate can react with strong bases to produce aluminum hydroxide and can release sulfuric acid upon hydrolysis. Its stability under normal conditions makes it a widely used chemical in industrial and municipal applications.
