Small-angle neutron scattering techniques developed in the preceding paper [Berk & Hardman-Rhyne (1985). J. Appl. Cryst. 18 , 467–472] are used to obtain microstructural parameters of high-purity alumina powder. The values of the particle size, volume fraction and surface area have been obtained and are compared to data from techniques such as laser light scattering, X-ray sedigraph and scanning electron microscopy. The particles exhibit a log–normal distribution and are spherical in shape with a mean particle size of 342 nm determined from SANS analyses of both beam broadening and Porod regions.
