aluminate

Base-reacted metal oxide

An aluminate is a chemical compound containing aluminum and oxygen bonded to a metal, formed when aluminum oxide reacts with a base.

Sodium aluminate is used in water treatment and papermaking.

The term appears in chemistry and industrial contexts: calcium aluminate cement, the aluminate phase of the reaction.
