Hydrothermal synthesis of well-crystallised boehmite crystals of various shapes

Aluminium monohydroxide, also known as aluminium oxyhydroxide (boehmite - AlO[OH]), is water insoluble but crystallises into microcrystals of various shapes. When, by X-ray diffraction, the microcrystals present a basal reflexion (d[020]) of 0.611 nm, the crystalline structure is referred to as &quo...
