Aluminum Hydroxide Production Cost Reports

Aluminum Hydroxide production cost report provides a comprehensive analysis and know-how for setting up a Aluminum Hydroxide production plant. The study covers all the requisite aspects that one needs to know for the production of Aluminum Hydroxide. This includes manufacturing processes, raw material requirements, utility requirements, infrastructure requirements, machinery and technology requirements, manpower requirements, packaging requirements, transportation requirements, etc.

Aluminum Hydroxide or Aluminic acid with the chemical formula Al(OH)3 is an inorganic salt used as an antacid used for relieving heartburn, acid indigestion, and sour stomach. The basic compound acts by neutralizing hydrochloric acid in gastric secretions. It is naturally present in the form of the mineral gibbsite and its polymorphs viz doyleite, nordstrandite, and bayerite.

It is an amorphous white powder. It is insoluble in water but soluble in alkaline and acidic solutions. It is Non-flammable and has a Melting Point of 300 °C. Its molecular weight is 78.00 g/mol, and its density is 2.42 g/dm3. It has a standard structure of metal hydroxide consisting of hydrogen bonds comprising of the hydroxyl group's double layers along with aluminium ions that occupy 2/3rd of the octahedral holes formed in the middle of the two layers.

The Aluminum Hydroxide industry is being driven by the medication's use for managing and treating acid indigestion. It is usually administered orally to temporary relief heartburn or gastroesophageal reflux. It can be topically used to prevent and relieve chafed and abraded skin, little burns and wounds, and irritations in the skin caused by friction and rubbing. Consumers use it to treat chemo-induced oral mucositis as a mouthwash. It also has applications in many vaccines as an adjuvant because of its ability to improve phagocytosis and spur immune responses.

In different concentrations, it is used in a range of cosmetics. It serves as a phosphate binder for patients that have chronic renal disease. Other uses of Aluminium hydroxide include its employment as a flame retardant in plastics and as a soft abrasive for plastics, in aluminium Hydroxide gel, as a chemical intermediate, for manufacturing activated alumina, glass and in glass, additive to increase resistance to thermal shock and in waterproofing fabrics that furthers the market expansion.
