Abstract
The vapor phase growth of alumina whiskers by the hydrolysis of aluminium flouride has been studied at an elevated temperature. The product was obtained in various forms: wool-like whiskers, needle-like whiskers, jointed needle-like crystals which consisted of linked small single crystals, tightly coagulated powder or as thin film covering the substrate. Aluminium oxi-fluoride was suggested as the intermediate gaseous species in the formation of alumina. The relation between the growth mechanism and crystal morphologies was studied.
