Aluminum hydroxide

Original price was: $ 1.89.Current price is: $ 1.78.
Aluminum Hydroxide, chemically known as Al(OH)₃, is a white, odorless, and odorless powder or gelatinous substance. It is widely used in pharmaceuticals as an antacid to neutralize stomach acid and relieve indigestion and heartburn. Beyond healthcare, aluminum hydroxide is a crucial component in water purification, fire retardants, and as a precursor or filler in various industrial applications. It functions as a flame retardant by releasing water upon heating, thus cooling the material and diluting flammable gases. Due to its amphoteric nature, it can react both as an acid and base, enhancing its versatility. Aluminum hydroxide is often utilized in manufacturing aluminum salts and in producing aluminum oxide.

Calcined Kaolin

$ 1.20
Calcined Kaolin is a fine, white to off-white powder produced by heating natural kaolin clay to high temperatures (typically between 600°C and 900°C) in a controlled process called calcination. This thermal treatment removes chemically bound water, changes the crystalline structure, and enhances the physical and chemical properties of kaolin. The resulting product exhibits increased brightness, hardness, and opacity, making it highly valuable as a functional additive and filler in numerous industrial applications. Calcined Kaolin is widely used in coatings, ceramics, plastics, rubber, paper, and paint industries to improve durability, brightness, and performance.
