Abstract
The paper presents results of studies on the structure of MgF2 support, per formed using various experimental methods such as XRD, IR, temperature-prog rammed techniques and low-temperature nitrogen adsorption. MgF2 is characte rized by an XRD spectrum with over 40 patterns, which enabled us to follow the changes in crystallite size and internal tension caused by the thermal treatment. TPE-H2O and TG allowed an estimation of the surface OH groups co ncentration as similar to 3-4 nm(-2).
