Description

Aluminium Methanolate is a versatile organoaluminium compound primarily used as a catalyst and reagent in organic synthesis. Its high reactivity makes it a critical component for facilitating key chemical transformations in controlled environments. This product is essential for manufacturers and research institutions in the pharmaceutical, fine chemical, and polymer industries seeking efficient alkoxide catalysts.

Application

• As a catalyst in organic synthesis, particularly for transesterification and condensation reactions.
• As a precursor for the production of other aluminium alkoxides and metal-organic frameworks (MOFs).
• In the synthesis of specialty chemicals and pharmaceutical intermediates.
• As a cross-linking agent or modifier in polymer and resin formulations.
• For deposition processes in materials science and thin-film technology.
• In laboratory research as a strong base and nucleophile.

Quality Control

Our Aluminium Methanolate is manufactured under controlled conditions to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. The product undergoes rigorous quality testing, including assay and impurity profile analysis, to meet the stringent requirements of industrial and research applications. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all relevant specifications is provided with each shipment and is available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and must be handled under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) to prevent decomposition. Keep away from heat, sparks, open flames, and incompatible materials such as strong acids and oxidizing agents.
