Abstract
The most common component in the design of heterogeneous catalysts for oil refining and petrochemistry are aluminum oxides. Each type of hydrocarbon raw materials and technological process corresponds to the optimal characteristics of aluminum oxide supports and catalysts: specific surface area, pore size, phase and impurity compositions. Due to the trend towards import substitution, the research of domestic producers of aluminum hydroxide used for the synthesis of aluminum oxides is becoming more relevant. In this work, domestic industrial samples of aluminum hydroxides were studied by methods of X-ray phase analysis, thermogravimetry combined with differential scanning calorimetry, low-temperature nitrogen adsorption and elemental analysis. It is established that the objects of research are most often phase-inhomogeneous, in which impurities of iron, silicon and calcium are present. The influence of the degree of crystallization and the size of the coherent scattering regions of aluminum hydroxides, mainly with the structure of boehmite and, in some cases, containing bayerite, on the textural characteristics of the resulting aluminum oxides is shown.
