Study of calcium magnesium aluminate CaMgAl10O17 formation

Aluminates of alkaline earth elements have high photoluminescence properties and resistance to UV radiation. Due to this, they are widely used in optical industry. In this work magnesium calcium aluminate was prepared by sol-gel method. The main stages of the formation of the crystalline structure CaMgAl10O17 were determined by thermal analysis, X-ray diffraction and IR spectroscopy. The surface morphology was studied using scanning electron microscopy. The ratio of elements in the product was installed by X-ray microanalysis
