Aluminum Chlorohydrate - 23% Al2o3 Concentration, 83% Basicity For Enhanced Coagulation And Acid Neutralization

Aluminum Chlorohydrate (ACH) is a highly concentrated solution of polyaluminum hydroxychloride. It is characterized by having the highest aluminum concentration (23% Al2O3) of any commercially available aluminum based solution. The basicity of ACH at 83% is also the highest available for any polyaluminum based solution. Basicity refers to the degree of acid neutralization and also represents a measure of how highly polymerized the aluminum in ACH is.

The highly polymerized aluminum species in ACH have much higher cationic charges than the aluminum in standard salts such as alum or aluminum chloride, and even other polyaluminum products. Therefore, ACH can offer both a higher level of performance and lower overall dosages. The high degree of acid neutralization (basicity) also means that the effect on pH when applying ACH will be negligible. ACH also effectively coagulates over a broader pH range (as high as 9.5) versus traditional metal salts and lower basicity Pacl.
