Abstract
Sol-Gel Hydrotalcites were synthesized using magnesium ethoxide and va riable aluminum sources: aluminum acetilacetonate, aluminum chloride, aluminum nitrate and aluminum sulfate; in all cases, the gelation was done at pH 10. X-ray diffraction studies show that the crystallinity d epends on the aluminum precursor used. The crystallinity was found in the order aluminum acetylcetonate > aluminum chloride > aluminum nitra te > aluminum sulfate. The precursor determines the sintering behavior as well.
