Popis: | A procedure for coating alumina fibre bundles with fibrillar boehmite particles is described. Fibrillar boehmite particles, having a specific surface area of 150 m2/g, were adsorbed onto the surface of the alumina fibres. The surface of the alumina fibres was first charge reversed by adsorption of a charge reversing agent. Polyvinylsulphate (PVS) proved to be an excellent charge reversing agent, whereas citric acid and Tiron (3,5-pyrocatecholdisulphonic acid disodium salt) were unable to reverse the surface charge of the alumina fibres. By using polyvinyl-sulphate (PVS), it was possible to adsorb an arbitrary number of layers of fibrillar boehmite particles. The coating of the alumina fibre bundles resulted in an increase in specific surface area from 0.09 m2/g for the uncoated fibres, to 0.7 m2/g for alumina fibres coated with four layers of fibrillar boehmite particles. The adsorbed boehmite particles were fixed onto the alumina fibre surface by calcination at 550 °C for 120 min, during which the boehmite was transformed into γ-Al2O3. The coated alumina fibre bundles were characterized by krypton adsorption and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). |
