| 0021 | A large granular product that is used when slow reaction rates are desired |
| 0020 | A consistent granular grade with a low-powder content designed to give a constant reaction with low hot spots and tar formation. |
| 0035 | This small grain provides a reaction rate faster than 0020, but has better flowability and lower fumes than 0025 |
| 0025 | A coarse powder grade providing excellent catalyst utilization in most Friedel-Crafts applications. |
| 0027 | Product Description |
| 0098 | The fine powder grade used in petrochemical applications and other processes where the catalytic reaction occurs on the surface of the aluminum chloride crystal. |
| 0099 | The ultimate high purity crystal, for applications where low-iron content, end color and non-volatile content are important. |
Custom Grinds and Cuts are available upon request.
Thoroughly read and understand the information presented in the Material Safety Data Sheet prior to using Aluminum Chloride Anhydrous in laboratory, pilot plant and/or full plant applications. It reacts violently with water and must be kept dry at all times. It must be sealed from humid air.
Health Rating: 3-Serious
Flammability Rating: 0-None

When handling this product, use the equipment described below:
- Wear safety glasses with side shields. Wear a face shield if possibility of material spraying exists.
- Wear a NIOSH/OSHA approved respirator with a dust mist cartridge designed for acid gases and organic vapors if there is a potential of exposure to mists in excess of applicable limits.
- To avoid skin contact, use the following as appropriate: rubber gloves, boots and Tyvek coveralls. Keep exposed skin to a minimum because Aluminum Chloride dust will react with sweat to cause burns. Keep all sources of water away. Know the location of your eyewash stations and safety deluge showers.
