Used as a flame retardant additive in polymers and coatings due to its ability to release water when heated, which helps suppress fire. Commonly employed in wire and cable insulation, construction materials, and electronics.

Also serves as a precursor for producing aluminum oxide (alumina) ceramics and catalysts, including in the production of alumina for aluminum manufacturing.

Applied in the paper industry to improve coating strength and ink adhesion.

Utilized in chromatography as a stationary phase support.

Functions as a binder and dispersant in catalyst formulations and ceramic processing, particularly as a support in petroleum refining processes to enhance surface area and stability.

Additionally, used in high-temperature refractory ceramics and thermal insulation materials due to its high melting point and thermal stability. Employed in surface coatings and paints to increase strength, scratch resistance, and chemical resistance. Applied in nanomaterials to develop special properties in advanced products.
