Any other information on results incl. tables

The experiment showed clearly that the substance reacts exothermic with water resulting in a dissolution having a pH of 8.5 after 24 hours. This goes in line with expectations for a hygroscopic substance (exothermie) and follows the equation Al(OR)3 + 3 H2O --> Al(OH)3 + 3 ROH (R = isopropyl). From Langmuir et al. 2004 it is known that Al(OH)3 at a pH of 8.5 itself is in an equilibrium ( Al(OH)2+ <-> Al(OH)3 <-> Al(OH)4 ) .

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Aluminium triisopropylate react exothermic with water to form dissolved aluminium 3+ species and isopropanol while a pH of 8.5 establishes over 24 hours (approx 5% solution).
Executive summary:

Aluminium triisopropylate react exothermic with water to form dissolved aluminium 3+ species and isopropanol while a pH of 8.5 establishes over 24 hours (approx 5% solution).
