General description

Aluminum sulfate is a white crystalline solid that is highly soluble in water. It is thermally stable and has the ability to act as a coagulant and flocculant. It is widely used in the field of solar cells, water treatment and batteries.

Application

Aluminum sulfate can be used:
  • As a surface modification agent/co-adsorbent for dye sensitizers in solar cell. It improves the surface of photoelectrode and purify dye solution through flocculation.
  • As an electrolyte additive for lead-acid batteries to effectively inhibit the passivation of electrodes. It helps to slow down cathode sulfation and improve the reversibility of the electrode reaction.
  • To prepare aqueous electrolyte for high energy aluminum electrochemical cells. It helps to form artificial solid electrolyte interphase to attain high specific energy.

Questions

1–3 of 3 Questions  
  1. How can I determine the shelf life / expiration / retest date of this product?

    1 answer
    1. If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
      For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
      For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.
      For more information, please refer to the Product Dating Information document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/418/501/product-dating-information-06-25-mk.pdf

  2. How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?

    1 answer
    1. Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf
