Aluminium Hydroxide

High-Purity Aluminium Hydroxide | Pharmaceutical & Technical Grades | UK & European Distribution

Technical Specifications

Aluminium Hydroxide (CAS No. 21645-51-2), chemical formula Al(OH)3, is an inorganic amphoteric white crystalline powder featuring a molecular weight of 78.00 g/mol. Insoluble in water but soluble in strong acids and alkalis, it acts as an effective acid-neutralizing agent and endothermic thermal decomposer, releasing water vapor at elevated processing temperatures.

Commercial Applications & Pharmaceutical Formulations

In pharmaceutical synthesis, high-purity BP/USP grade Aluminium Hydroxide serves as a core active antacid ingredient in heartburn and indigestion remedies. It is also widely incorporated into personal care formulations, cosmetics, and specialty washing products as an active rheology modifier, mild abrasive, and opacity agent.

Industrial Operations & Functional Fillers

Across technical manufacturing, Aluminium Hydroxide functions as an eco-friendly flame retardant, smoke suppressant filler, and binder in high-performance polymers, adhesives, sealants, protective coatings, plasters, and putties. Distributed across the UK, Ireland, and Europe, supply formats include standardized 25kg multi-wall paper bags and industrial bulk sacks.
