Product Description
Aluminium 2-ethylhexanoate, also known as aluminum isooctanoate, is an aluminium carboxylate coordination compound. It is typically supplied as a white powder, with physical properties depending on its composition and product grade.
According to the available product specifications, the compound has a reported melting point of approximately 276°C and a flash point above 177°C. These values should be verified against the applicable technical data sheet and test methods.
In compatibility testing, the material reportedly exhibits slight turbidity when exposed to a hot 1 mol/L sodium hydroxide (NaOH) solution. This observation describes its behavior under the specified test conditions and should not, by itself, be interpreted as proof of overall chemical stability.
Aluminium 2-ethylhexanoate is a specialty aluminium compound whose handling, storage, and suitability for industrial applications should be evaluated according to its verified composition, technical specifications, and safety data sheet.
