Pseudoboehmite is also known as alumina monohydrate, boehmite. Banlan chem has rich experience in manufacturing and supplying high-quality Pseudoboehmite.
Pseudoboehmite Description
Pseudoboehmite is also known as alumina monohydrate, boehmite. It is non-toxic, tasteless, odorless, white colloid (wet product) or powder (dry), with high crystal phase purity, good peptization performance, strong adhesion, high specific surface, large pore volume, etc. Its hydrated state is a thixotropic gel.
Pseudoboehmite Application:
Pseudoboehmite is a versatile material with diverse applications, primarily as a precursor to alumina and in catalyst support. It's used in various industries, including chemical processing, catalysis, ceramics, and drug delivery, due to its unique properties like high surface area, pore volume, and self-binding characteristics.
Here's a more detailed look at its uses:
- Catalysis:
Catalyst support:
