Abstract
Alumina gel has been prepared from hydrolysis of aluminum 2-methoxyethoxide and characterized by XRD, TGA, DSC, BET and SEM. Aluminum 2-methoxyethoxid e shows less susceptibility toward hydrolysis in comparison to the aluminum sec-butoxide. The alumina powder that obtained from aluminum 2-methoxyetho xide shows lower surface area (S-BET) than the alumina prepared from alumin um s-butoxide. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V.
