A new procedure was used to prepare a microcrystalline powder constituted by thin euhedral hexagonal gibbsite plates, 0.2 to 0.6 µm in diameter and 32 nm thick. The powder, fired between 200 and 1000 °C, produced chi and kappa transition aluminas.

Synthesis and Characterization of Boehmites Obtained from Gibbsite in Presence of Different Environments [PDF]
In this study, results related to boehmite synthesis by hydrothermal processes starting from a Bayer commercial gibbsite are reported. The processes have been conducted from aqueous suspensions with initial acidic or alkaline pH, without or with acetate ...

The laser Raman identity of gibbsite pseudomorphous after crocoite from Dundas, Tasmania [PDF]
Gibbsite both invests and replaces crocoite in late supergene ores of the Dundas district, Tasmania. The laser Raman spectrum of the gibbsite shows strong, well-developed v-OH stretching bands at about 3370, 3440, 3525, 3620 cm-I, confirming its identity.

Abstract Aluminum (Al) is one of the most abundant elements in soils. As poorly crystalline Al hydroxides are reactive toward soil organic matter (SOM), they are thought to be involved in SOM stabilization. This is also inferred from correlations between soil organic carbon contents and those of Al extracted by acid oxalate in darkness (AOD), although ...

Because weathering of minerals releases chemical elements into the biogeochemical cycle, characterization of their weathering products helps to better model groundwater quality, formation of secondary minerals and nutrient flux through the trophic chain.

Modification of the simple mass balance equation for calculation of critical loads of acidity. [PDF]
Over the last few years, the simple mass balance equation for the calculation of critical loads of acidity has been gradually modified as the underlying critical load concepts have developed and as problems with particular forms of the equation have been

Abstract The hydration process of ordinary Portland cement (OPC) involves intricate interactions among ions in the pore solution, dissolving clinker phases, and precipitating hydrates. Tricalcium aluminate (C3A${\rm C}_3{\rm A}$) shows the highest reactivity of the cement clinker phases during the initial hydration stages of OPC. The kinetic control of
