Abstract
Novel aluminum phosphates, in particular amorphous aluminum phosphate powders having a BET specific surface no greater than 25 m.sup.2 /g, well suited as binders/hardeners or for the production of ceramic shaped articles, are prepared by reacting at least one aluminum compound, e.g., an aluminum oxide, hydroxide or oxyhydroxide, with phosphoric acid or an aluminum phosphate, e.g., an acid aluminum orthophosphate, in a liquid reaction medium devoid of inorganic acid anions other than of phosphoric acid, and then spray- or freeze-drying the suspension thus obtained.
