| common aluminum salt | aluminum sulfate is one of the common aluminum salts, prone to hydrolysis, and the aqueous solution is acidic. Adding soluble carbonate or sulfide to the solution will promote complete hydrolysis: (1)2Al3 3CO2-3 2H2O = 2Al(OH)3 ↓ 3CO2 ↑ (2)2Al3 3S2- 3H2O = 2Al(OH)3 ↓ 3H2S ↑ white flocculent aluminum hydroxide precipitate is generated, which will expand violently and become sponge-like substance when heated; When calcined to red heat, it decomposes into sulfur trioxide and alumina. aluminum sulfate solution and potassium sulfate solution are mixed and crystallized to obtain a new salt, called aluminum potassium sulfate K2SO4 · Al2 (SO4) 3 · 24H2O. this salt is called double salt, also known as aluminum potassium alum, commonly known as alum. From the perspective of composition, it is composed of two simple salts, but it is not a simple mixture of two salts, but a compound with the same crystal structure and definite composition. The difference between double salt and complex is that double salt has simple ions in solid state or solution, but no complex complex ions. aluminum sulfate and other soluble sulfates can also form double salts with each other, and their general formulas are M2 Ⅰ SO4MⅡ SO4 · 6H2O and M Ⅰ 2SO4M2 Ⅲ (SO4)3 · 24H2O. In the formula, M I is usually NH 4,Na ,K ,Rb ,Cs ,Tl ;M II 1 is Fe2 ,Co2 ,Ni2 ,Zn2 ,Cu2 ,Hg 2 ;Mu III 1 is Fe 3 , Cr3 ,Al3, etc. This type of compound salt is collectively referred to as alum, for example: molar salt (NH4) 2SO4 · FeSO4 · 6H2O, magnesium potassium alum K2SO4 · MgSO4 · 6H2O, chromium potassium alum K2SO4 · Cr2 (SO4) 3 · 24H2O, sodium alum Na2SO4 · Al2 (SO4) 3 · 24H2O, ammonium alum (NH4) 2SO4 · Al(SO4) 3 · 24H2O, etc. The solubility of these alums in water is much smaller than that of the corresponding sulfates that make up them. Therefore, when crystallizing from the solution, it is easy to obtain more complete crystal particles and easy to purify. The step of preparing aluminum alum is often used to purify aluminum sulfate or produce purer aluminum compounds. Alum has a wide range of uses in industry. Alum can be used to clean drinking water. It is also used in tanning, printing and dyeing, papermaking and other industries. Aluminum sulfate can be produced by the interaction of metal aluminum, aluminum oxide or aluminum hydroxide with sulfuric acid. |
| uses and functions of aluminum sulfate | aluminum sulfate is mainly used as turbidity water purifier, precipitant, fixing agent, filler, etc. Used as an antisweat cosmetic raw material (astringent) in cosmetics. In addition, aluminum sulfate can also be used as a finishing agent for the paper industry (turpentine glue, so that the color is attached to the paper surface); leather tanning agent; mordant; water purifier (flocculant, the generated aluminum hydroxide flocs can be suspended in the water The particles are wrapped up to promote rapid sedimentation and separation); the retention agent of the foam fire extinguisher (the retention agent is sodium bicarbonate, which generates carbon dioxide after reaction); the raw materials for making alum and aluminum white; petroleum decolorization and deodorant; pharmaceutical raw materials; used as food curing agent (excipient); used for removing impurities such as grease and water; stabilizer for albumin pasteurization; lake raw materials; sewage treatment agent; waterproof concrete raw materials; fireproof cloth raw materials. |
| reference quality standard | aluminum sulfate quality standard (HG1-32-77) 1. refined aluminum sulfate is used as precipitant for making paper sizing at all levels. when grade a, grade B and grade c are used for water purification, the arsenic (AS2O3) content should not be more than 0.01%. 2. Aluminum sulfate particle size: all pass through a 10mm sieve, of which the fine particles passing through the 8mm sieve are not less than 98%, but they can also be made into lumps according to user requirements. 3, the appearance of refined aluminum sulfate is white. 4. crude aluminum sulfate is used for water purification at all levels, and the purified aluminum sulfate used shall not be made of waste acid with toxic substances. 5, aluminum sulfate for papermaking sizing, Al2O3 content should be above 12%, iron content should be below 0.2%, insoluble matter should not exceed 0.5%. The production of high-grade paper requires that the content of iron in aluminum sulfate should be below 0.08%. This kind of aluminum sulfate is called iron-free aluminum sulfate. |
| aluminum sulfate binder | aluminum sulfate binder is a kind of refractory binder. It is prepared by hydrolysis of industrial aluminum sulfate from bauxite sulfuric acid decomposition method or aluminum hydroxide sulfuric acid decomposition method. the hardening mechanism of the combination with aluminum sulfate binder is relatively complex. SO42-, Al (OH)2 and Al (SO4)3 exist in aluminum sulfate solution at normal temperature. If no accelerator is added, solidification is slow or not. After adding coagulant, such as adding coagulant alumina cement, SO42-will seize Ca2 from alumina cement to form CaSO4, and also form ferric sulfate, magnesium sulfate, etc. They will interact with each other to form new substances such as calcium sulphoaluminate (3CaO · Al2O3 · 3 CaSO4 · 31H2O or 3CaO · Al2O3 · CaSO4 · 12H2O) and aluminum ferric sulfate (FeO · Al2O3 · 4SO3 · 22H2O) Precipitation and crystallization, promote the condensation and hardening of the combination. The combination of aluminum sulfate binder has very low strength at room temperature due to the small number of new products. The strength after heat treatment before 500~600 ℃ is close to the drying strength. When 700~800 ℃, sulfate and sulphoaluminate begin to decompose one after another, releasing SO3,[Al2(SO4)3-→ Al2O3 3SO3 ↑], which loosens the structure and reduces the strength of the combination. When it is higher than 1000 ℃, the active Al2O3 obtained by the decomposition of sulfate and sulphoaluminate is prone to solid phase reaction, forming new substances and appearing liquid phase to achieve sintering, and the strength is significantly improved. At 1200 ℃, the strength of the combination is about 3.5~5 times that at 800 ℃. since the hydrolysis reaction product of aluminum sulfate is H2SO4, it can react with metals and oxides in the raw materials to generate hydrogen and water, which is unfavorable to the molding performance of bricks, so when using aluminum sulfate binder, the material should be trapped for more than 24 hours at a certain temperature and humidity. aluminum sulfate binder can be used to prepare castables, ramming materials, plastic and non-burning bricks, etc. The use temperature varies with the materials of aggregates and powders used. |
