Aluminium Chloride Hydroxide CAS# 12042-91-0
Effective antiperspirant – works by forming insoluble aluminum hydroxide that blocks sweat glands.
Soluble aluminum complex – easily dissolves for formulation in various products.
Inorganic stability – a stable complex inorganic salt suitable for long-term use.
Targeted action – acts directly within eccrine sweat glands for efficient sweat reduction.
Aluminum Chlorohydrate (ACH) is a complex inorganic salt composed of basic aluminum chloride. It is a soluble aluminum complex and is believed to function as an antiperspirant by precipitating within the eccrine sweat glands, forming insoluble aluminum hydroxide that blocks the glands.

Product Usage
Aluminum hydroxide chloride, an inorganic high-molecular flocculant, offers strong adsorption capacity, high flocculation efficiency, and a broad applicable pH range. Its applications are extensive: in water treatment, it is primarily used for municipal sewage, industrial wastewater (including printing and dyeing, electroplating, and papermaking wastewater), and drinking water purification. It effectively adsorbs suspended particles, colloidal substances, and heavy metal ions, reduces turbidity, COD, and color, and leaves a low residual aluminum content.
