Sodium aluminate (Na₂AlO₂) is an inorganic ceramic compound formed from sodium and alumina, commonly produced as a powder or dissolved in aqueous solutions. It serves primarily as a chemical intermediate in water treatment, cement chemistry, and alumina refining processes, where its strong alkalinity and aluminum solubility make it valuable for coagulation, pH adjustment, and industrial synthesis rather than as a structural ceramic material itself.
