A PROCESS FOR THE PREPARATION OF A MICRO-CRYSTALLINE BOEHMITE

摘要

The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of a micro-crystalline boehmite containing additive in a homogeneously dispersed state. Suitable additives are compounds containing elements selected from the group consisting of alkaline earth metals, alkaline metals, rare earth metals, transition metals, actinides, silicon, gallium, boron, titanium and phosphorus, the microcrystalline boehmite according to the invention may be prepared in several ways. In general, a microcrystalline boehmite precursor and an additive are converted to a microcrystalline boehmite containing the additive in a homogeneously dispersed state. The additive does not contain zirconia or magnesia.
