ALUMINUM CHLOROHYDRATE MARKET OVERVIEW

The global Aluminum Chlorohydrate Market size stood at USD 0.43 billion in 2025, growing further to USD 0.88 billion by 2034 at an estimated CAGR of 8.31% from 2025 to 2034.

The United States Aluminum Chlorohydrate Market size is projected at USD 0.13493 billion in 2025, the Europe Aluminum Chlorohydrate Market size is projected at USD 0.10772 billion in 2025, and the China Aluminum Chlorohydrate Market size is projected at USD 0.12577 billion in 2025.

Aluminum chlorohydrate is a group of particular aluminum salts and an inorganic polymer with the general formula AlnCl(3n-m) (OH)m. Aluminum chlorohydrate is indeed a crystalline powder or solid that is scentless, translucent, and gentle yellow. If aluminum chlorohydrate is put on the skin, the salts dissolve in moisture or underarm moisture. The dissolved chemical, which develops a gel, forms a short-term plug in the sweat gland, lowering a particular quantity of sweat on the surface of skin.

KEY FINDINGS

COVID-19 IMPACT

Supply and Lockdown Hindrances to Deplete Market Advancement

The COVID-19 pandemic had a detrimental effect on most market outlook. The chemical is extensively used at petrochemical industry and at wastewater treatment centres. This market is being influenced by factors such as rising consumer disposable income, rising demands for deodorants, and increased number of wastewater treatments plants. The enhanced utilization of chlorohydrate was decreased considerably due to its superior barrier properties including lockdown prevailing during the pandemic which had a detrimental effect on the aluminum chlorohydrate market share outlook.

The sharp rise in chlorohydrate applications throughout all industries after the pandemic such as personal grooming, among others is predicted to contribute to the aluminum chlorohydrate market growth.

LATEST TRENDS

Increasing Use of Deodorants to Intensify Market Magnification

Market growth for aluminum salts as an effective antiperspirant agent in advertising underarm or deodorant cosmetic products is anticipated to propel growth in the chlorohydrate market. Moreover, the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) considers aluminum chlorohydrate in deodorants to be useful, secure, and allowable in concentrations up to 25%. There is no scientific proof that the chemical, which is found in antiperspirants, causes breast cancer or Alzheimer's disease.

• Liquid aluminum chlorohydrate represents ~60% of market volume, favored in de‑icing, firefighting, and cosmetics.

• Municipal plants deploy tens of kilotons annually in major U.S./Canadian facilities, reflecting high institutional usage.

BOD and COD removal industry is the leading part of the application segment

DRIVING FACTORS

Growing Number of Wastewater Treatment Plants to Assist Market Evolution

The utilization of this chemical into filtration of water as a coagulant to eliminate dissolved organic substances and colloidal particles found in water is expected to boost the expansion of aluminum chlorohydrate market growth as the percentage of treatment plants increases as a result of additional government projects for water treatment.

Petrochemical Industries to Nurture Market Expansion

Moreover, the use of chlorohydrate in petrochemical industries for the manufacturing of hydrocarbon resins boosts the aluminum chlorohydrate market. In accordance with the IEA (International Energy Agency), petrochemical feedstock or substance comprises for 12% of global oil consumption, a proportion that is predicted to rise due to rising demand for plastics, fertilizers, and other products, which will boost the consumption of aluminum chlorohydrate for resin manufacturing, driving the chemical and will uplift the market.

• EPA data shows 80% of U.S. drinking water uses aluminum-based coagulants—boosting demand.

• Rising number of wastewater treatment plants (e.g., > 4.2% YoY U.S. industrial growth June 2022) increases coagulant use.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

Harmful Effects on Human Health to Diminish Market Growth

Because aluminum chlorohydrate is hygroscopic, it reacts rapidly with water, producing excessive heat and hydrochloric acid vapours. Hydrochloric fumes have a number of negative effects, including vision problems, breathing issues, skin problems, and asthma. Furthermore, the chemical exposure can result in neurological problems, complexity in training, mood swings, short-term memory loss problems, anxiousness, coordination loss, disorientation, depressed mood, mental confusion, gastrointestinal upsets, and eye strain. Furthermore, aluminum toxicity can cause nerve damage, kidney problems, and osteomalacia. All of these factors will eventually impede the growth of the market.

• Health Canada flagged aluminum chlorohydrate for non‑cancer lung effects from aerosol exposure.

• Government and industry note volatile aluminum raw material costs, which squeeze producer margins.
