Abstract

This paper reports on a novel, inexpensive, flame spray pyrolysis method to synthesize agglomerate-free nano-sized Al₂O₃ particles with a size range of 5-30 nm. The precursors and the resultant oxide powders were characterized by chemical analysis, X-ray diffraction (XRD), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) analysis and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The novel flame spray pyrolysis method successfully synthesized nano-sized Al₂O₃ of about 5-30 nm (α-phase + γ-phase), and 80-100 nm (α-phase, calcined) from AlCl₃ vapour. © 2006 Elsevier B.V.
