EXPLANATION

General Information

Potassium aluminum sulfate was mainly removed from alunite in ancient times. Today, industrial production is provided by adding potassium sulfate to a concentrated aluminum sulfate solution. Aluminum sulfate is usually obtained by treating minerals such as bauxite, alum and cryolite with sulfuric acid. If more iron ions are required in the sulfate, it is preferable to use potassium chloride instead of potassium sulfate. Potassium aluminum sulfate is mostly used as an antiseptic in medicine. In addition, topical acne drying feature is used. Due to its compressor and hemostatic properties, it is used in dentistry (especially in gingival cords).
