Aluminate(1-), tetrachloro-, sodium, (T-4)- - Introduction
Sodium tetrachloroaluminate (tetrachloroaluminate) is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula Na[AlCl4]. The following is a description of its nature, use, preparation and safety information:
Nature:
- sodium tetrachloroaluminate is a white crystalline solid, usually in the form of anhydrate.
-It is soluble in water and forms tetrachloroaluminate ions ([AlCl4]^-) in aqueous solution.
-The compound has high thermal and chemical stability.
Use:
- sodium tetrachloroaluminate is mainly used as an additive in the manufacture of optical glass, which can be used to improve the radiation resistance of glass.
-It can also be used as a raw material for dyes, pigments and flame inhibitors.
Preparation Method:
- sodium tetrachloroaluminate can be prepared by the reaction of aluminum and sodium chloride at high temperature. The reaction equation is: Al 4NaCl → Na[AlCl4] 2Na.
-The reaction can be carried out under an inert atmosphere to prevent the disorder of impurities.
Safety Information:
- sodium tetrachloroaluminate are generally considered to have low toxicity. However, if exposed or swallowed in large quantities, adverse health effects may occur.
-Wear appropriate personal protective equipment, such as lab gloves, safety glasses and a protective mask, when handling the compound to avoid skin contact and inhalation of gas or dust.
-When storing and using sodium tetrachloroaluminate, follow the corresponding safety procedures and store it separately from other chemicals to prevent accidental reactions or leaks.
