Abstract
Disclosed are methods for preparing high-purity boehmite and porous gamma-alumina nano-powder, comprising: adding aluminum isopropoxide into water and stirring the aluminum isopropoxide added water, then adding aluminum hydroxide generated by hydrolysis of high-purity aluminum powder into that stirred water, stirring that aluminum hydroxide added water to obtain a mixed system; carrying out hydrothermal reaction on the mixed system, performing centrifuging, washing, drying and crushing to the reacted mixed system, obtaining high-purity boehmite; calcining the high-purity boehmite to obtain porous gamma (γ)-alumina nano-powder. By strictly controlling the addition of isopropanolic aluminum and the temperature as well as the duration of the hydrothermal reaction, the product boehmite γ-AlOOH obtains good character in terms of crystalline structure, purity, morphology and dispersion; γ-Al2O3 obtained after calcining remains basically the same morphology as that of boehmite powder with good powder dispersion and no major changes.
