Product Overview
Industrial Alum is a powdered water-soluble chemical compound used extensively in water treatment and industrial manufacturing. With astringent and coagulating properties, it plays a crucial role in the purification of water by facilitating the removal of suspended solids through flocculation.
Applications
This compound is widely applied in water purification systems, where it neutralizes negatively charged colloidal particles, causing them to aggregate and settle. It is also used in the cosmetic industry (as a natural deodorant base), as well as in dyeing, tanning, and fireproofing textiles.
Key Advantages
Alum demonstrates strong solubility and chemical reactivity, making it suitable for both automated and manual dosing systems. When heated, it transitions to an amorphous powder, offering flexibility for different formulation techniques across industries.
Chemical Characteristics
Alum exhibits an astringent, slightly sweet taste and an acidic reaction with litmus. When heated, it undergoes physical transformation, losing its water of crystallization and swelling before becoming a dry amorphous solid. This behavior is particularly beneficial in thermal processes.
Global Distribution & Compliance
Made in India and packaged in durable 50kg industrial bags, this product is distributed domestically and exported globally by Prinita Chem. Its application scope and compliance with industrial quality standards make it a dependable choice for bulk chemical procurement across industries.
