Synthesis of Fine-Particle α-LiAlO2 via Heat Treatment of a Mechanically Activated Mixture of Gibbsite and Lithium Carbonate

Аннотация

We have found conditions for the synthesis of fine-particle phase-pure α-LiAlO₂ via heat treatment of a mechanically activated mixture of gibbsite and lithium carbonate in air. The results demonstrate that, to synthesize α-LiAlO₂, the mechanical activation of the reaction mixture should cause no gibbsite amorphization and heat treatment in air should be performed in the range 650–700°C.
