Transition (active) phases of alumina were synthesized starting from sodium aluminate solution prepared out of Bayer liquor. The neutralisation of sodium aluminate solution was performed by sulphuric acid. Powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transformed infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and low-temperature nitrogen absorption studies were employed to trace the formation of the transition phases of alumina. The results show that the properties of the powders (phase composition, morphology and specific surface area) are strongly influenced by the initial pH value of the system, as well as by the duration of neutralisation step. It is possible to obtain powders with heterogeneous structure with dominant phase of bayerite, gibbsite or boehmit by tuning the pH and concentration of the starting sodium aluminate solution. The transition (active) phases of alumina (?- and ?-alumina) with high specific surface area (264-373 m2/g) are formed through the thermal dehydratation of aluminium hydroxide (bayerite and gibbsite) and aluminium oxyhydroxide (boehmite or pseudoboehmite) at the temperature of 500?C. Namely, bayerite and pseudoboehmite transforms to ?-phase of alumina upon heating, while gibbsite transforms to ?-phase, maintaining the parent morphology.

High-entropy alloys (HEAs) present excellent mechanical properties. However, the exploitation of chemical properties of HEAs is far less than that of mechanical properties, which is mainly limited by the low specific surface area of HEAs synthesized by traditional methods. Thus, it is vital to develop new routes to fabricate HEAs with novel three-dimensional structures and a high specific surface area. Herein, we develop a facile approach to fabricate nanoporous noble metal quasi-HEA microspheres by melt-spinning and dealloying. The as-obtained nanoporous Cu30Au23Pt22Pd25 quasi-HEA microspheres present a hierarchical porous structure with a high specific surface area of 69.5 m2/g and a multiphase approximatively componential solid solution characteristic with a broad single-group face-centered cubic XRD pattern, which is different from the traditional single-phase or two-phase solid solution HEAs. To differentiate, these are named quasi-HEAs. The synthetic strategy proposed in this paper opens the door for the synthesis of porous quasi-HEAs related materials, and is expected to promote further applications of quasi-HEAs in various chemical fields.
