Aluminum Sesquichlorohydrate vs Aluminum Chloride Hexahydrate

The distinction between aluminum chloride and aluminum chloride hexahydrate
In the field of pharmaceuticals and materials, aluminum chloride (Aluminum Sesquichlorohydrate) and aluminum chloride hexahydrate (Aluminum Chloride Hexahydrate) are often the focus of public debate. Although both contain aluminum and chlorine, their properties and uses are quite different.

Aluminum chloride contains hydroxyl groups and chlorine atoms. Because of its special structure, it is effective in the preparation of antiperspirants. It can form a film on the surface of the skin, prevent the secretion of sweat, and is mild and non-irritating, rarely causing skin discomfort. In the water treatment industry, it also has its use. It can flocculate impurities in water, clarify the water, and ensure the safety of drinking water for the people.

On the other hand, aluminum chloride hexahydrate is accompanied by six molecules of crystal water. It is a commonly used catalyst in the process of organic synthesis. In the alkylation and acylation of aromatics, it can greatly promote the reaction rate and increase the yield of products. However, it has strong acidity. If used in skin care, it is easy to cause skin allergies and burns.

The world uses these two, when its properties are clear, observe its use. For antiperspirant skin care, aluminum chloride is the best; for organic synthesis, aluminum chloride hexahydrate is the best. It must not be misused without discrimination, which will backfire. If used properly, each can develop its strengths and add luster to the well-being of mankind.
