Application of Aluminium Sulphate

  1. Water Treatment: Aluminium Sulphate is widely used in water treatment plants to purify drinking water. It acts as a coagulant, helping to remove impurities by causing them to clump together, making them easier to filter out.
  2. Paper Manufacturing: In the paper industry, Aluminium Sulphate is used to control the pH of the pulp slurry and improve the paper's quality by enhancing its strength and brightness.
  3. Textile Industry: It is used in dyeing and printing textiles to fix dyes onto fabrics, ensuring vibrant and long-lasting colors.
  4. Leather Tanning: Aluminium Sulphate is used in the tanning process to improve the leather's texture and durability by stabilizing the collagen fibers.
  5. Fire Retardants: It is used in the formulation of fire retardants, helping to reduce the flammability of materials by forming a protective layer when exposed to heat.
