Aluminium

Aluminium (Aluminum in North American English) is a chemical element; it has symbol Al and atomic number 13.

Aluminium hydroxide oxide

Aluminium hydroxide oxide or aluminium oxyhydroxide, AlO(OH) is found as one of two well defined crystalline phases, which are also known as the minerals boehmite and diaspore.

See Boehmite and Aluminium hydroxide oxide

Aluminosilicate

Aluminosilicate refers to materials containing anionic Si-O-Al linkages.

See Boehmite and Aluminosilicate

Analcime

Analcime or analcite is a white, gray, or colorless tectosilicate mineral. Boehmite and Analcime are aluminium minerals and orthorhombic minerals.

See Boehmite and Analcime

Angstrom

The angstrom is a unit of length equal to m; that is, one ten-billionth of a metre, a hundred-millionth of a centimetre, 0.1 nanometre, or 100 picometres.

See Boehmite and Angstrom

Bauxite

Bauxite is a sedimentary rock with a relatively high aluminium content. Boehmite and Bauxite are aluminium minerals.

See Boehmite and Bauxite

Corundum

Corundum is a crystalline form of aluminium oxide typically containing traces of iron, titanium, vanadium, and chromium. Boehmite and Corundum are aluminium minerals.

See Boehmite and Corundum

Crystal polymorphism

In crystallography, polymorphism is the phenomenon where a compound or element can crystallize into more than one crystal structure.

See Boehmite and Crystal polymorphism

Diasporealso called diasporite, empholite, kayserite, or tanatariteis an aluminium hydroxide oxide mineral, α-AlO(OH), crystallizing in the orthorhombic system and isomorphous with goethite. Boehmite and diaspore are aluminium minerals, hydroxide minerals and orthorhombic minerals.

See Boehmite and Diaspore

Fire-safe polymers

Fire-safe polymers are polymers that are resistant to degradation at high temperatures.

See Boehmite and Fire-safe polymers

Flame retardant

The term flame retardant subsumes a diverse group of chemicals that are added to manufactured materials, such as plastics and textiles, and surface finishes and coatings.

See Boehmite and Flame retardant

France

France, officially the French Republic, is a country located primarily in Western Europe.

Metasomatism (from the Greek μετά metá "change" and σῶμα sôma "body") is the chemical alteration of a rock by hydrothermal and other fluids.

See Boehmite and Metasomatism

Mohs scale

The Mohs scale of mineral hardness is a qualitative ordinal scale, from 1 to 10, characterizing scratch resistance of minerals through the ability of harder material to scratch softer material.

See Boehmite and Mohs scale

Natrolite

Natrolite is a tectosilicate mineral species belonging to the zeolite group. Boehmite and Natrolite are aluminium minerals and orthorhombic minerals.

See Boehmite and Natrolite

Nepheline

Nepheline, also called nephelite, is a rock-forming mineral in the feldspathoid groupa silica-undersaturated aluminosilicate, Na3KAl4Si4O16, that occurs in intrusive and volcanic rocks with low silica, and in their associated pegmatites. Boehmite and Nepheline are aluminium minerals.
