Abstract

In this paper, α-alumina structures were successfully prepared via hydrothermal synthesis supported with sodium dodecyl sulfonate anionic surfactant. The effect of the surfactant and the calcination time were investigated. The characterization of the samples calcinated at 1200 °C was performed using Raman spectroscopy, X-Ray Difraction analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, and scanning electron microscopy techniques. Experimental results showed that pure α-Al2O3 structures were obtained with different morphologies.
