Popis: A successful mechanochemical synthesis of nanocrystalline aluminium hydroxide fluoride samples AlFx(OH)3-x·nH2O with pyrochlore structure is described for the first time. Optimal conditions for the synthesis can be adjusted using γ-Al(OH)3 and β-AlF3·3H2O as educts applying an Al:F ratio of 1:1.5. Under these circumstances, the reaction proceeds almost stoichiometrically. On the other hand a classical solid state chemical reaction at elevated temperature is not successful with the same educts. Strongly disordered or amorphous products are obtained with differing Al:F molar ratios at the beginning. It was found that structure and water content of the educts are playing a crucial role for the product composition.
