摘要:
A process for preparing a stabilized alumina wherein an aqueous slurry of a precursor boehmite alumina is admixed with an effective amount of a stabilizer such as a water-soluble salt of a polyvalent metal cation of Groups IIA and IIIB of the periodic table, the slurry containing the alumina and the stabilizer being aged at a pH of from about 3 to about 9 and a temperature greater than about 70.degree. C. for a period of time sufficient to convert the greater portion of said alumina to a colloidal sol, the colloidal sol being recovered and calcined to produce a stabilized alumina.
摘要:
Methods and apparatus are provided for sample rate conversion in a system including two or more sample rate converters. The method includes the steps of providing an input clock and an output clock to each of the sample rate converters, measuring a sample rate ratio of the clocks in one of the sample rate converters, designated as a master, and controlling each of the sample rate converters with the sample rate ratio measured by the master. The measured sample rate ratio may be transmitted from the master to each of the other sample rate converters. This approach matches the group delays among the sample rate converters.
摘要:
A process for preparing stabilized alumina having increased surface area retention at high temperature in which a gel of a boehmite alumina which has been obtained by hydrothermally treating an aqueous mixture of a precursor boehmite alumina having a pH of from about 5 to about 9 for a period of time sufficient to convert the greater portion of the precursor boehmite alumina to a colloidal sol is subjected to working as, for example, by using a sufficient shearing force for a sufficient period of time to produce a worked boehmite alumina which has an increase in pore volume of at least about 30 percent and an increase of median pore radius of at least about 20 percent, a stabilizer being added to the boehmite alumina, the stabilizer being an oxide of a metal such as barium or a metal included in the lanthanide series of metals or a compound of such metals which converts to an oxide at elevated temperatures.
