Sodium aluminate is an inorganic chemical that is used as an effective source of aluminium hydroxide for many industrial and technical applications. Pure sodium aluminate (anhydrous) is a white crystalline solid.<\/p>\n
Chemical formula:NaAlO2<\/sub><\/p>\n Molar mass:81.97 g\/mol<\/p>\n Appearance:white powder (sometimes light-yellowish)<\/p>\n hygroscopic\/ when dissolved in water a colloidal black solution is formed<\/p>\n Odor:odorless<\/p>\n Density:1.5 g\/cm3<\/p>\n Melting point:1,650 \u00b0C (3,000 \u00b0F; 1,920 K)<\/p>\n Solubility in water:highly soluble<\/p>\n Solubility:Insoluble in alcohol<\/p>\n Refractive index (nD):1.566<\/p>\n Water Treatment: Sodium aluminate is widely used as a coagulant and flocculant in water treatment processes. When added to water, it forms aluminum hydroxide, which binds impurities and aids in their removal.<\/p>\n Paper Manufacturing: In the paper industry, NaAlO\u2082 is used to improve paper strength, increase opacity, and control pH. Its use also helps to reduce the amount of rosin sizing needed.<\/p>\n Textiles and Fabrics: NaAlO2<\/sub> is used as a mordant in the textile industry, which helps fix dyes to fabrics, improving colorfastness and brightness.<\/p>\n Construction and Cement: In cement manufacturing, sodium aluminate is used as an accelerator, speeding up the hardening process. It is particularly useful in conditions where rapid setting is required, such as cold weather.<\/p>\n Alumina Production: NaAlO\u2082 is sometimes used as an intermediate in the production of alumina (Al\u2082O\u2083), especially in Bayer processing.<\/p>\n Toxicity: Sodium aluminate is caustic and should be handled with care. It can cause skin and eye irritation upon contact, and inhaling its dust can irritate the respiratory tract.<\/p>\n Handling and Storage: NaAlO2<\/sub> should be stored in a cool, dry place and kept away from moisture and acids. Personal protective equipment (PPE) like gloves and safety goggles should be used when handling it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Sodium aluminate is an inorganic chemical that is used as an effective source of aluminium hydroxide for many industrial and technical applications.
