Synthesis of aluminum oxides from the products of the rapid thermal decomposition of hydrargillite in a centrifugal flash reactor: II. Structural and textural properties of aluminum hydroxide and oxide obtained from the product of the centrifugal thermal activation of hydrargillite (CTA product)

The basic properties of aluminum hydroxide compounds, namely, the flash product and the centrifugal thermal activation (CTA) product both before and after heat treatment at 400–1100°C are considered. The hydration conditions for obtaining 100% pseudoboehmite from the CTA product are determined. The structure, morphology, and texture of pseudoboehmite aluminum hydroxide synthesized from the CTA product and of the aluminum oxides obtained from this hydroxide in the temperature range 600–1100°C are described.
