Activated alumina has a porous structure and large specific surface area. It is often used as a catalyst carrier for various reactions. Currently, solution-phase methods (sol-gel reactions) that cause environmental pollution and resource waste are often used to synthesise activated alumina. To overcome this disadvantage, in this study, an eco-friendly low-heat solid-phase precursor method was developed to prepare activated alumina with improved properties (phase stability and specific surface area). The difference between the activated alumina synthesised by this method and a sol-gel method was studied in terms of the specific surface area and high thermal stability. The results indicated that after 4 h of treatment at 1100 ?, pure activated alumina obtained by the low-heat solid-phase precursor method maintained the gamma-phase and had a specific surface area of 92 m(2)/g and pore volume of 0.68 cm(3)/g. On the other hand, pure activated alumina produced by the sol-gel method mainly consisted of the alpha-phase and had a specific surface area of only 21 m(2)/g and a low pore volume of 0.16 cm(3)/g. Upon doping with La and Ba, and heat-treating at 1100 C & nbsp;for 4 h, the specific surface areas of the activated alumina samples obtained by the low-heat solid-phase precursor method and sol-gel methods were 109 and 119 m(2)/g, respectively. When heated at high temperatures, the percentage loss of the specific surface area of the activated alumina synthesised by the low-heat solid-phase precursor method was lower than that of the sample obtained by the sol-gel method, indicating that it can inhibit the crystal-phase transformation of alumina at high temperatures.
