Abstract

Aluminium hydroxide was prepared by precipitation from aluminium nitrate solution with ammonia solution. Thermal decomposition of the solid hydroxide was studied by means of TG, DTG and DTA.

The sample was thermally treated in the temperature interval between 200 °C and 1000 °C. X-ray phase analysis was used to study the phase compositions of the resulting products, and their surface areas were compared.

Zusammenfassung

Aus einer Aluminiumnitratlösung wurde mit Ammoniaklösung durch Präzipitation Aluminiumhydroxid gefertigt. Mittels TG, DTA und DTG wurde die thermische Zersetzung des festen Hydroxides untersucht. Die Probe wurde Temperaturen zwischen 200 °C und 1000 °C ausgesetzt. Die Phasenzusammensetzung der erhaltenen Produkte wurde mittels Röntgenphasenanalyse untersucht und die Oberflächenstrukturen verglichen.

Резюме

Методами ТГ, ДТГ и ДТА и зучено термическое разложение осажденн ой гидроокиси алюминия, полученной из растворов нитрата алюминия и аммиака. Образец терм ически обрабатывался в темп ературном интервале 200–1000°. Фазовый состав образ ующихся при этом продуктов был изучен с помощью рентгенофа зового анализа и сопоставле на их удельная площадь поверхности.
