The micromorphology of alumina determines its application in high tech and value-added industry and its development prospects. This paper gives an overview of the liquid phase synthetic method of alumina preparation, combined with the mechanism of its action. The present work focuses on the effects of various factors such as concentration, temperature, pH, additives, reaction system and methods of calcination on the morphology of alumina during its preparation %K Alumina %K Particle morphology %K Reaction mechanism %K Calcination method %U https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4875917/
