Is it possible to use aluminum hydroxide in reaction with hydrochloric acid to produce an aluminum trichloride solution? Please provide guidance from experts

Aluminum hydroxide (Al(OH)3) can undergo a chemical reaction with hydrochloric acid (HCl) to produce an aluminum chloride (AlCl3) solution. This is an acid-base neutralization reaction; aluminum hydroxide acts as a weak base, while hydrochloric acid is a strong acid. In this reaction, aluminum hydroxide reacts with hydrochloric acid to produce aluminum chloride and water. The chemical reaction equation is: Al(OH)3 + 3HCl → AlCl3 + 3H2O. In this reaction, hydrochloric acid completely neutralizes aluminum hydroxide, producing water and an aluminum chloride solution. Aluminum trichloride has a high solubility in water, forming a clear solution. To carry out this reaction, it is necessary to control the molar ratio of the reactants to ensure complete reaction. At the same time, since the reaction is exothermic, it is necessary to control the reaction temperature to prevent the solution from boiling or splashing. If done properly, this is a simple and efficient method for preparing an aluminum trichloride solution. .

Is aluminum trichloride or polyaluminum chloride needed? There is still a certain difference between the two.

The pH of the aluminum chloride solution must be below 3; otherwise precipitation will occur

It appears to be an electronic chemical with high purity requirements. The impurities introduced by conventional methods are difficult to remove; therefore, unconventional methods may be used, which results in higher costs compared to ordinary industrial products
