WHAT DOES ACTIVATED ALUMINA MEAN IN ENGLISH?

activated alumina

Activated alumina

Activated alumina is manufactured from aluminium hydroxide by dehydroxylating it in a way that produces a highly porous material; this material can have a surface area significantly over 200 square metres/g. The compound is used as a desiccant and as a filter of fluoride, arsenic and selenium in drinking water. It is made of aluminium oxide, the same chemical substance as sapphire and ruby. It has a very high surface-area-to-weight ratio, due to the many "tunnel like" pores that it has.

Definition of activated alumina in the English dictionary

The definition of activated alumina in the dictionary is a granular highly porous and adsorptive form of aluminium oxide, used for drying gases and as an oil-filtering material and catalyst.
