Poly Aluminium Chloride Supplier in Malaysia
- Also known as
- Polyaluminium Chloride
- Poly Aluminum Chloride
- PAC Coagulant
- PAC Water Treatment Chemical
Poly aluminium chloride supplier for water treatment and industrial effluent buyers in Malaysia. Also written polyaluminium chloride and poly aluminum chloride, and ordered as a PAC coagulant rather than bare PAC so it is not confused with powdered activated carbon. It is a pre-hydrolysed aluminium coagulant selected for drinking water, wastewater, palm oil mill effluent, paper mill and dyehouse treatment trains.
Commercial supply covers spray-dried poly aluminium chloride powder and liquid PAC coagulant solution. Grades are described by aluminium oxide content and basicity rather than a single fixed assay, because the family is a set of polymerised species that differ by supplier. State the form and target Al2O3 or basicity with the enquiry instead of assuming one commercial strength fits every plant.
In water, poly aluminium chloride flocculates faster over a wider pH band and typically needs a lower dose than aluminium sulphate, while consuming less alkalinity. Palm oil mills, pulp and paper plants and textile dyehouses use it for colour, COD and solids removal, and paper mills also use it for retention and drainage. It is a different coagulant from alum, ferric salts and polyacrylamide flocculant, so plant dose and jar-test results are not transferable between those chemistries.
Send the required powder or liquid form, Al2O3 or basicity target, application, quantity and delivery location with your enquiry. Availability, packing, documentation and delivery timing are confirmed with the quotation.

Poly Aluminium Chloride grades and forms
We supply several forms to suit different formulating and dosing setups. If you need a size that is not listed, ask us.
| Grade | Form | Assay | Typical use | Packing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spray-dried poly aluminium chloride powder | pale yellow to off-white free-flowing powder | — | Bagged make-up and batch dosing where the plant dissolves powder on site for drinking-water or industrial wastewater coagulation. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |
| Liquid poly aluminium chloride solution | amber aqueous solution | — | Continuous dosing on treatment plants that prefer a ready-to-dose PAC coagulant without a powder make-up unit. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |
| High-basicity poly aluminium chloride | powder or liquid as specified | — | Drinking-water and low-alkalinity streams where a higher basicity grade is selected after jar testing for floc speed and residual aluminium control. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |
| Industrial wastewater PAC coagulant grade | powder or liquid as specified | — | Palm oil mill effluent, dyehouse, paper-mill and general industrial wastewater where colour, COD and suspended solids removal are the target. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |

Poly Aluminium Chloride applications
Safety and handling
- Classification
- irritant
Store powder in closed bags in a cool, dry place, as it is hygroscopic and cakes. Store solution in lined or plastic tanks and protect it from freezing and from prolonged heat, which can cause it to gel. Keep it away from strong bases. The material irritates skin and eyes and the powder irritates airways, so handle it with gloves, goggles and a dust mask.
Common questions about poly aluminium chloride
Is poly aluminium chloride the same as aluminium sulphate?
No. They are different coagulants. Poly aluminium chloride is a pre-hydrolysed aluminium coagulant graded on Al2O3 content and basicity; aluminium sulphate (alum) is a separate salt with a different dose, alkalinity demand and jar-test performance. If your plant specification names poly aluminium chloride or PAC coagulant, enquire against that identity rather than substituting alum.
Should I request powder or liquid poly aluminium chloride?
Spray-dried powder is chosen when the plant dissolves material on site and wants bagged make-up. Liquid solution suits continuous dosing without a powder make-up unit. State the dosing method, target Al2O3 or basicity and any current plant grade so the suitable form can be quoted.
What does PAC mean on this page?
Here PAC means poly aluminium chloride coagulant, also written polyaluminium chloride. It is not powdered activated carbon, which is a different product sold under the activated carbon page. Use the full product name or the phrase PAC coagulant in enquiries to avoid that mix-up.
What specifications should a buyer provide for poly aluminium chloride?
State powder or liquid form, required Al2O3 content or basicity if known, the water or effluent application, quantity and delivery location. For an existing plant dose, include the current specification or a jar-test target so the quoted grade can be matched more closely.
Is poly aluminium chloride used for palm oil mill and paper mill effluent?
Yes. PAC coagulant is widely used on palm oil mill effluent, paper-mill wastewater and dyehouse streams for solids, colour and COD reduction, and in paper machines for retention and drainage. Suitability still depends on the stream and the rest of the treatment train, so describe the application in the enquiry.
What details are needed for a poly aluminium chloride price enquiry?
Provide the form or grade, Al2O3 or basicity target, application, quantity, delivery location and any documentation or packing preference. Availability, commercial terms and delivery timing are confirmed with the quotation.
