Alumina in Aluminum Salts- Correction

Preparation of Γ-alumina from Aluminum Aminoalkoxides

The synthesis of materials with tailored properties is one of the most active areas of material science [1, 2]. Among so many materials, γ-alumina due to the significant application in catalysis, electronic and ceramic industry has been studied extensively [3]. Various processes have been employed for the preparation of high quality alumina, including sol-gel processing from aluminum alkoxides....

Charge-induced reversible bending in nanoporous alumina-aluminum composite

Strengthening of Aluminum Wires Treated with A206/Alumina Nanocomposites

This study sought to characterize aluminum nanocomposite wires that were fabricated through a cold-rolling process, having potential applications in TIG (tungsten inert gas) welding of aluminum. A206 (Al-4.5Cu-0.25Mg) master nanocomposites with 5 wt % γAl₂O₃ nanoparticles were first manufactured through a hybrid process combining semi-solid mixing and ultrasonic processing. A206/1 wt % γAl₂O₃ n...

Formation of Aluminum Hydroxides as Influenced by Aluminum Salts and Bases

-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 an...

Polyionic vaccine adjuvants: another look at aluminum salts and polyelectrolytes

Adjuvants improve the adaptive immune response to a vaccine antigen by modulating innate immunity or facilitating transport and presentation. The selection of an appropriate adjuvant has become vital as new vaccines trend toward narrower composition, expanded application, and improved safety. Functionally, adjuvants act directly or indirectly on antigen presenting cells (APCs) including dendrit...
