Aluminum chloride hexahydrate is white to pale in color crystalline powder, which is stable at room temperature. However, it may decompose when it is exposed to moist air or water. According to Oxford University Chemical Safety data, aluminum chloride hexahydrate has a melting point of 1000C. It is used to treat hyperhidrosis, which is excessive sweating. It works as an antiperspirant that works by affecting the sweat producing cells. It is easily soluble in water, ether, ethanol, chloroform, propylene glycol, and ethanol.  It is predominantly used in metal processing and pharmaceutical industries for the production of aluminum metal, as a catalyst in chemical reactions. Moreover, it is also used in water treatment plants. Some studies claim that aluminum chloride hexahydrate has carcinogen properties that would cause breast cancer. However, these claims have not been validated due to ample proof.
