Sf. Tikhov et al., The three-dimensional microporous structure of alumina synthesized throughthe aluminum hydrothermal oxidation route, MICROP M M, 33(1-3), 1999, pp. 137-142
The structural properties and porosity of a gamma-alumina sample prepared b
y the hydrothermal treatment of powdered aluminum were investigated using t
echniques of nitrogen adsorption, mercury porosimetry, and electron microsc
opy. The information available from each technique is used to present a mor
e complete picture of the three-dimensional pore structure of this sample,
in terms of size, shape, distribution, crystallographic orientation and acc
essibility of pores. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
