I-alumina eyenziwe yasebenza inezindlela eziningi ezincane, ngakho-ke indawo ethile inkulu. Ingasetshenziswa njenge-adsorbent, desiccant, defluorinating agent kanye ne-catalyst carrier. Futhi uhlobo lokulandela umkhondo wamanzi desiccant kanye ne-pole-molecular adsorbent, ngokusho kwe-adsorbed polarization yamangqamuzana, amandla okunamathisela aqinile emanzini, i-oxide, i-acetic acid, i-alkali njll i-alumina eyenziwe yasebenza ngamandla amakhulu, ukuhuzuka okuphansi, akukho ukuthambisa emanzini, akukho ukunwetshwa, akukho powdery, akukho ufa.
