Pseudo boehmite is an aluminium compound with the chemical composition AlO(OH). It consists of finely crystalline boehmite. However, the water content is higher than in boehmite.
Pseudo boehmite is essentially finely crystalline boehmite that consists of the same or similar octahedral layers in the xz plane but lacks three-dimensional order because of a restricted number of unit cells in the y-direction. It consists of a significant number of crystallites that contain a single unit cell along y or single octahedral layers. It contains more water which is commonly intercalated between octahedral layers, normally randomly arranged, but sometimes regularly.
The water content consists of adsorbed and chemically bound water. The higher water content compared to boehmite can be explained by a smaller crystallite size.[4] While boehmite consists of relatively long AlOOH chains that have terminal H2O groups, the chains in pseudo-boehmite are significantly shorter. This translates into a significantly higher specific water content due to the terminal water groups:
Uses
Pseudo boehmite is used as a binder for FCC catalysts and adsorbents. It is also a raw material for activated alumina.
Pseudo-boehmite is a white powder with high purity, low pile, large pore volume, high specific surface, and good compatibility. It can be easily decentralized and soluble in the acid and alkali solution. It can become highly active alumina after low-temperature roasting and dehydration.
Mainly used as raw materials for the production of catalyst carrier, activated alumina, also as a molecular sieve, and as cement for aluminum silicate refractory fiber, for example, as a cement of the catalyst for semi-synthetic rare earth cement of the catalyst for semi-synthetic rare earth Y molecular sieve cracking, catalyst in making ethylene by alcohol dehydration and EO.
