Description

Ammonium Tetrachloroaluminate is an inorganic salt complex of aluminum and ammonium chloride. This compound serves as a versatile Lewis acid catalyst and a key precursor in the synthesis of aluminum-containing materials. It is primarily utilized by industries involved in advanced material science, specialty chemical synthesis, and catalysis. Its properties make it valuable for applications requiring controlled aluminum deposition or specific acid-catalyzed reactions.

Application

As a catalyst or co-catalyst in Friedel-Crafts alkylation and acylation reactions within fine chemical synthesis.
As a precursor material in Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) or Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) processes for creating thin aluminum-containing films.
In the synthesis of organoaluminum compounds and other aluminum-based reagents for research and industrial applications.
As a chlorinating agent or component in specialized inorganic synthesis pathways.
In electrolyte systems for specific types of electrochemical cells or molten salt applications.
For surface treatment and modification of materials where controlled aluminum introduction is required.

Quality Control

Our Ammonium Tetrachloroaluminate is manufactured under controlled conditions to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Quality is assured through rigorous analytical testing, including assay and impurity profile determination. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing specific results for each batch is available upon request, confirming compliance with agreed specifications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept in a cool, dry place with minimal exposure to atmospheric humidity. For long-term storage, consider using a desiccator or an inert atmosphere. Store at room temperature (15-25°C) away from incompatible materials.
