The Ozawa concept of generalized time has been used for developing master plots for the
different kinetic models describing solid state reactions. These plots can be indistinctly used …

Alumina based particles were prepared from aluminium chloride hydroxide as starting
material by sol-gel technique. One series of particles was doped with ferrous oxide. Both …

Macroporous α-alumina can be obtained by polymer-induced phase separation during the
sol-gel process based on dissolved aluminum salts. Polyethylene oxide (PEO) acts as …

The effects of self-seeding and SiO 2-sol doping on the sol–gel preparation of α-Al 2 O 3
fibers are investigated. Self-seeding induces heterogeneous nucleation of α-Al 2 O 3 from …

This paper reports the effect of the variation of citrate to nitrate ratio on the thermal
decomposition characteristics of alumina precursor and the properties of nanocrystalline …

Hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) powder is widely used in industry because of its unique
physical and chemical properties. Atomic layer deposition (ALD) allows the growth of such …

The paper reports on non-isothermal kinetics of transformation processes in magnetron
sputtered alumina thin films with an amorphous and γ-phase structure leading ultimately to …

The role of Fe3+ ions in the transformations from boehmites and pseudoboehmite xerogels
via transition aluminas to corundum was studied here. Especially, the active iron species …

The transformation of doped or seeded pseudoboehmite to corundum was studied by
combining thermal analysis, X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, and …

This is the first book of a series of forthcoming publications on this field by this publisher. The
reader can enjoy both a classical printed version on demand for a small charge, as well as …
