Ukuze uqonde i-aluminium sulfate, kuyimfuneko ukuqonda ukusetyenziswa kwayo, kubandakanywa ne-foam yomlilo, ukucocwa kwamanzi amdaka, ukucocwa kwamanzi kunye nokwenza iphepha.Inkqubo esetyenziselwa ukuvelisa i-aluminium sulfate ibandakanya ukudibanisa i-asidi ye-sulfuric kunye nezinye izinto, ezifana ne-bauxite kunye ne-cryolite.Kuxhomekeke kwishishini, ibizwa ngokuba yi-alum okanye i-alum yephepha
I-aluminium sulfate yikristale emhlophe okanye emhlophe okanye umgubo.Ayiguquguquki okanye ayinakutsha.Xa idibene namanzi, ixabiso layo le-pH liphantsi kakhulu, linokutshisa isikhumba okanye i-corrode metals, i-soluble yamanzi, kwaye inokugcina iimolekyuli zamanzi.Xa amanzi e-alkaline eyongezwa, enza i-aluminium hydroxide, i-Al (OH) 3, njengemvula.Inokufumaneka ngokwemvelo kwiintaba-mlilo okanye kwiindawo zokulahla inkunkuma yasemigodini.
