Hydrotalcite Production Cost Breakup From Magnesium and Aluminium Nitrate

Details: Germany - based plant Q2 2024  | From $ USD

This report entails the detailed cost evaluation of hydrotalcite production from nitrate. Manufacturing hydrotalcite involves a controlled chemical reaction. Hydrotalcite with nitrate ions in the interlayer is formed gradually by adding a solution of magnesium and aluminium nitrates to a sodium hydroxide solution until the pH decreases from 14 to 10. The resulting hydrotalcite nitrate has a specific composition. After this, intercalation process takes place to intercalate ATP anions into hydrotalcite nitrate. The resulting compound is dipped in an ATP solution at pH 7, which facilitates complete ion-exchange leading to formation of hydrotalcite ATP (The additional ATP lies aligned in the interlayer).

Feedstock For Hydrotalcite

The feedstock for hydrotalcite are the various metal salts, including aluminium nitrate and various divalent metal salts like magnesium, zinc, and iron salts, that serve as primary ingredients in the manufacturing process of hydrotalcite. Additionally, alkaline compounds like sodium hydroxide are also crucial.

The procurement of hydrotalcite is influenced by various industries relying on its versatile properties, such as pharmaceutical, construction, cosmetic, and energy sectors. The price, market, or demand fluctuation in these industries directly impacts the procurement of hydrotalcite. Moreover, the procurement is governed by certain factors like production cost, availability (metal salts and alkaline compounds), supply and logistics. These factors cumulatively affect the procurement of hydrotalcite across the world.
