Overview of Activated Alumina

Activated Alumina is a highly porous, inorganic aluminium oxide adsorbent widely used in water treatment, drying, purification, catalysis, and speciality industrial applications. Chemically, the activated alumina formula is Al₂O₃, representing aluminium oxide processed to achieve a high surface area and enhanced adsorption capacity. It is a thermally treated form of alumina with excellent mechanical strength and chemical stability.

From a structural perspective, Activated Alumina has a highly porous granular structure that provides a large surface area for the adsorption of moisture, fluoride, arsenic, sulphur compounds, and other impurities. It typically appears as white to off-white spherical beads or granules. The material is identified in industrial and regulatory systems under the activated alumina CAS no 1344-28-1.

Due to its efficiency and reusability, activated alumina uses are predominantly industrial. ChemicalBull supplies high-quality Activated Alumina with controlled pore size distribution, consistent adsorption performance, and reliable mechanical strength. Each batch is supported with complete documentation, including activated alumina MSDS, COA, and technical data sheets.
