Abstract

The possibility of synthesizing different crystalline modifications of alumina Al 2 O 3 by combustion reactions of a mixture of aluminum nitrate with glycine has been analyzed. Aggregated powders of γ-Al 2 O 3 that do not transform into the corundum structure after annealing at a temperature of 1000°C have been prepared. The influence of the synthesis conditions on the specific surface area, bulk density, porosity, and morphology of alumina particles has been investigated.
