Aluminium formate is the aluminium salt of formic acid, with the chemical formula Al(HCOO)3. It can be produced via the reaction of aluminium soaps and formic acid.[1] Reaction between formic acid and aluminium hydroxide yields Al(HCOO)3(CO2)0.75(H2O)0.25(HCOOH)0.25. Upon activation at 180 °C, guest molecules are removed to obtain Al(HCOO)3.[2]
