SILICA DOPED ALUMINOUS PARTICULATE MATERIALS

摘要

A particulate material includes an aluminous material and a silica dopant. The particulate material includes crystallite particles with a crystallite particle size of less than about 10 nm. The crystallite particles are stacked together to form primary particles with a primary particle size of less than about 500 nm. The primary particles are agglomerated together to form secondary particles with a secondary particle size of greater than about 1 µm. The particulate material has a mean pore diameter of not less than 8 nm.
