  2. Aluminium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminium

    The names aluminium and aluminum are derived from the word alumine, an obsolete term for alumina, [j] the primary naturally occurring oxide of aluminium. [121] Alumine was borrowed from French, which in turn derived it from alumen, the classical Latin name for alum, the mineral from which it was collected. [122]

  3. Aluminium oxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminium_oxide

    Aluminium oxide (or aluminium(III) oxide) is a chemical compound of aluminium and oxygen with the chemical formula Al 2 O 3. It is the most commonly occurring of several aluminium oxides, and specifically identified as aluminium oxide. It is commonly called alumina and may also be called aloxide, aloxite, or alundum in various forms and ...

    A pseudo alum is a double sulfate of the typical formula X SO 4 · Y 2 (SO 4) 3 ·22 H 2 O, such that X is a divalent metal ion, such as cobalt , manganese , magnesium (pickingerite) or iron (halotrichite or feather alum), and Y is a trivalent metal ion. [36] Double sulfates with the general formula X 2 SO 4 · Y 2 (SO 4) 3 ·24 H

  5. Aluminate - Wikipedia

    There are many mixed oxides containing aluminium where there are no discrete or polymeric aluminate ions. The spinels with a generic formula A 2+ B 3+ 2 O 2− 4 that contain aluminium as Al 3+, such as the mineral spinel itself, MgAl 2 O 4 are mixed oxides with cubic close packed O atoms and aluminium Al 3+ in octahedral positions.

    A chemical formula is a way of presenting information about the chemical proportions of atoms that constitute a particular chemical compound or molecule, using chemical element symbols, numbers, and sometimes also other symbols, such as parentheses, dashes, brackets, commas and plus (+) and minus (−) signs.

  9. Aluminium nitride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminium_nitride

    Aluminium nitride (Al N) is a solid nitride of aluminium. It has a high thermal conductivity of up to 321 W/(m·K) [ 5 ] and is an electrical insulator. Its wurtzite phase (w-AlN) has a band gap of ~6 eV at room temperature and has a potential application in optoelectronics operating at deep ultraviolet frequencies.
