Growth is supported by expanding applications in pharmaceuticals, petrochemicals, catalysts, and polymer manufacturing, along with increasing adoption of advanced chemical processing technologies and rising capital investment across fast-growing industrial economies.
Latest News and Developments:
- February 2025: Gujarat Alkalies and Chemicals Limited (GACL) commissioned a new 32,000 TPA plant for Poly Aluminium Chloride (18% PAC), a derivative related to aluminium chloride, at its Coelho Complex, Gujarat, India. The expansion included installation of a spray-dryer to convert part of liquid PAC into powder form, improving capacity utilization and enabling broader industrial deliverability.
Product Description
Aluminium chloride (AlCl₃) is a chemical compound comprised of aluminium and chlorine atoms which is considered an important industrial chemical. It is widely used for the production of aluminium metals and in petrochemicals, specifically in processes like isomerization, which is essential for producing high-octane gasoline. It is also used in the treatment of wastewater and as an antiperspirant added to personal care products as it inhibits sweat gland function.
Aluminium chloride is available in both anhydrous (AlCl₃) and hydrated forms (such as AlCl₃·6H₂O). The anhydrous form is a white or yellow crystalline solid that fumes in moist air due to hydrolysis. On the other hand, the hydrated form typically appears as colorless crystals and is not prone to fuming. The hydrated form dissolves readily in water, releasing a considerable amount of heat and forming acidic solutions. This difference in behavior between the anhydrous and hydrated forms of aluminium chloride is crucial in various industrial applications. The anhydrous form is often used in the Friedel-Crafts reactions, serving as a catalyst in organic synthesis, while the hydrated form finds usage in water treatment processes and as a reagent in laboratory settings.
