Formation of Aluminum Hydroxides as Influenced by Aluminum Salts and Bases

چکیده
-The influence of different ions in the formation of AI(OH)3 polymorphs has been studied experimentally by promoting stoichiometric reactions between the aluminum salts (A1C13, Al(NO3)3, A12(504)3) and bases (NaOH, KOH, NH4OH). In all cases the polymorphs obtained were a mixture of gibbsite, bayerite and nordstrandite or pseudoboehmite with the exception of the reaction between KOH, or NH4OH and A12(504) 3 which produced amorphous gels. Ageing of these gels at ambient temperature and pressure for 180 days or at 60*(2 for 20 days resulted in crystalline structure. Specifically, pseudoboehmite was crystallized from the reaction between A12(SO4)3 and NH4OH. Significantly, of all ions present in solution in the present experiment, only the sulphate ones were observed to have a marked influence in the precipitation of A1 oxyhydroxides. Key Words--Aluminum hydroxides, Pseudoboehmite, Sulfates.

Gallium, Therapeutic Effects
Metallic gallium dissolves slowly in dilute mineral acids but rapidly in aqua regia and concentrated sodium hydroxide. In its compounds, the valency is +3. Its oxygen compounds resemble those of aluminum in that there are highand lowtemperature forms of Ga2O3 and two hydroxides, Ga(OH)3 and GaO·OH. Substances which lower the hydrogen ion concentration throw down a white gelatinous precipitate f...

Thimerosal, which is approximately 50% mercury by weight is a preservative widely used in vaccines since the 1930’s. It meets the requirements for a preservative as set forth by Pharmacopeia challenge test and has been shown to be effective against a broad spectrum of pathogens. In July 1999, the Public Health Service agencies and vaccine manufacturers agreed that thimerosal should be redu...

The influence of pH and aging upon the phosphate binding capacity of iron(II1) or aluminum hydroxides has been investigated. The formation of reactive polynuclear hydroxo complexes by the hydrolyzing cations and the subsequent oxolation process are starting points of a discussion of the observed influence of the experimental conditions upon the rate and extent of phosphate adsorption. The ratio...
