Abstract

Effect of hydroxide precursor nature on the morphology of alumina derived by heat treatment of ammonium aluminium carbonate hydroxide NH4AlCO3(OH)2 was investigated. It was found that the use of aluminum hydroxide as the precursor leads to the formation of needle-like particles of the product, while during synthesis using hydrated alumina, alumina particles of isometric shape were obtained. The effect of ammonia sulfate (NH4)2SO4 on the BET surface area of ammonium aluminium carbonate hydroxide powders was shown.
