Description
A white precipitate formed by the reaction of Aluminum hydroxide and Acetic acid. Basic aluminum acetate is used as a lake substrate and as a mordant in textile dyeing. It also functions as a flame retardant and waterproofing agent. An aqueous solution of 5% neutral aluminum acetate (Burow's solution) is used as an astringent and antiseptic.
