Abstract
An acicular single crystal of diaspore was synthesized under the conditions of 1 N NaOH, 450 ° C and 1200 kg cm−2 and characterized by means of X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, electron diffraction and infrared spectroscopy. The reactivity of three kinds of natural ores containing diaspore which were used as a seed crystal for synthesis of diaspore was also compared.
