China and Germany are the leading exporters of aluminum chloride hexahydrate, collectively accounting for a substantial share of global supply, while the United States, South Korea, and India represent the largest importers. Aluminum chloride hexahydrate prices have remained relatively stable amid steady cross-border flows. Export volumes from China have increased modestly over the past two years, while U.S. imports have diversified across more suppliers, indicating evolving sourcing patterns in key end-use sectors.
Aluminum chloride hexahydrate is a white to off-white, crystalline solid at room temperature, odorless and non-volatile, with a melting point of approximately 100 °C (with decomposition). It is an inorganic hydrated metal salt, specifically the hexahydrated form of aluminum chloride. Primarily used as a catalyst and precursor in organic synthesis, it serves in Friedel–Crafts acylations and alkylations, as well as in the production of aluminum-based coagulants for water treatment. Its main application areas include water purification, petroleum refining catalysts, and as a raw material for manufacturing other aluminum compounds used in ceramics, antiperspirants, and flame retardants.
