Aluminum Chlorohydrate
Aluminum Chlorohydrate is a highly basic aluminum salt used primarily as a coagulant in water and wastewater treatment. It is also used in selected personal-care formulations, particularly antiperspirant products.
We manufacture and supply Aluminum Chlorohydrate in India for water-treatment companies, industrial users, personal-care manufacturers and qualified bulk buyers. Product supply can be arranged according to the required grade, concentration, basicity, physical form and application.
Buyers can request the applicable product specification, Certificate of Analysis (COA), Safety Data Sheet (SDS), packaging details and bulk quotation according to their technical and commercial requirements.
Aluminum Chlorohydrate Manufacturer in India
Aluminum Chlorohydrate, often abbreviated as ACH, is a group of aluminum-based inorganic salts characterized by high basicity. It is widely used as a coagulant because of its ability to destabilize suspended and colloidal particles during water treatment.
Aluminum Chlorohydrate is commonly identified by CAS Number 12042-91-0. A commonly represented chemical formula is Al2(OH)5Cl, although commercial ACH products may differ in basicity, concentration and detailed composition depending on the manufacturing process and specification.
As an India-based manufacturer and supplier, we support bulk procurement requirements for water treatment, wastewater treatment and other qualified applications. Buyers can share their required specification, application, quantity, packaging and delivery location for product evaluation and quotation.

Aluminum Chlorohydrate is valued for its high basicity and coagulation performance. It can be selected for applications where efficient destabilization and removal of suspended or colloidal matter are required.
Drinking Water Treatment
Suitable water-treatment grades of Aluminum Chlorohydrate can be used as a coagulant in drinking-water treatment processes. The appropriate grade and dosage should be determined according to the source-water characteristics and treatment process.
Wastewater Treatment
Aluminum Chlorohydrate can be used in wastewater treatment to support coagulation and removal of suspended solids, colloidal material and certain contaminants.
Industrial Water Treatment
It can be used in selected industrial water-treatment processes where an aluminum-based coagulant is required.
Antiperspirant Applications
Selected grades of Aluminum Chlorohydrate are used as active ingredients in antiperspirant and personal-care formulations. Such applications require appropriate cosmetic or regulatory specifications.

Aluminum Chlorohydrate for Water Treatment
Aluminum Chlorohydrate is an effective aluminum coagulant used in various water-treatment processes. During coagulation, the material contributes to destabilization and aggregation of suspended and colloidal particles, allowing them to be removed through subsequent treatment stages.
Compared with conventional aluminum coagulants, ACH is valued in many applications for its high basicity and relatively low acid demand during coagulation. Actual treatment performance depends on water chemistry, contaminant load, dosage, mixing conditions and the selected product grade.
Water-treatment operators should conduct application-specific testing or jar testing to determine the appropriate product and dosage for their water source and treatment objectives.
Aluminum Chlorohydrate for Wastewater Treatment
Aluminum Chlorohydrate can be used as a coagulant in wastewater-treatment systems. It may support the removal of suspended solids, colloidal particles and other substances that respond to coagulation.
Performance depends on the characteristics of the wastewater and the overall treatment process. Factors such as pH, alkalinity, turbidity, organic load and competing ions can influence coagulation efficiency.
For commercial treatment systems, the optimum dosage should be established through appropriate process testing rather than relying on a fixed dosage for every application.
Aluminum Chlorohydrate vs Polyaluminium Chloride
Aluminum Chlorohydrate (ACH) and Polyaluminium Chloride (PAC) are both aluminum-based coagulants, but they are different products with different compositions and characteristics. Product selection should be based on the treatment objective and water chemistry.
| Aluminum Chlorohydrate | A highly basic aluminum salt used as a coagulant in water and wastewater treatment and in selected personal-care applications. |
|---|---|
| Polyaluminium Chloride | A family of pre-hydrolyzed aluminum coagulants available in different basicities and formulations. |
| Product Selection | Selection should be based on raw-water or wastewater characteristics, treatment objectives, dosage requirements and applicable product specifications. |
