Synthesis and Characterization of Al2O3 by Using a Combustion Synthesis Method

Article Preview

Abstract:

Aluminium oxide is one of the metal oxides that can exist in many phases such as α, θ, η etc. All the phases obtained are affected by annealing temperature and synthesis route. In this research the Al2O3 powders were synthesized by the combustion method using triethanolamine as fuels. A pure η phase as well as a mixed α and η phases were obtained. The size and morphology of Al2O3 particles were studied using scanning electron microscopy (SEM).
