44、9-07 EN 13753:2009 (E) 9 Annex A (informative) General information on granular activated alumina A.1 Origin A.1.1 Raw materials Granular activated alumina is produced from aluminium hydroxide. A.1.2 Manufacturing process Activated alumina is prepared by the calcination of aluminium hydroxide. Granul
45、ar activated alumina can be prepared by granulation of activated alumina powder or calcination of aluminium hydroxide granules. A.2 Typical properties A.2.1 Chemical composition Activated alumina is a partially calcined aluminium trihydroxide with a combined water content of between a mass fraction
46、of 5 % and a mass fraction of 6 %. The crystal structure is predominantly gamma or chi alumina; small amounts of other forms can be present. The crystal structure can be determined by X-ray diffraction. The chemical composition depends on the origin of the raw material. Typical maximum limits are gi
