Effects of Different Raw Materials in the Synthesis of Boehmite and γ- and α-Alumina

Two alumina polymorphs, the metaestable γ-Al2O3 and the stable α-Al2O3, were obtained from thermal treatment of the precursor γ-AlOOH (boehmite). This precursor was prepared by a precipitation method employing different raw materials in order to study their effect on the synthesis process and severa...
