| Abstract | Alpha alumina nanocrystals that are highly dispersible and have a high specific surface area play an important role in the field of catalytic supports and others. As the phase-transformation temperature of α-Al2O3 is 1000°C, it is extremely difficult to fabricate monodisperse nanoparticles. Here, the study reports a new method, referred as the salt microemulsion method, for the fabrication of monodisperse α-Al2O3 nanoparticles, and the particle size could be tuned between 3 and 8 nm. The particles precipitated by demulsifying the microemulsion were analysed by transmission electron microscopy. The precipitated particles are found to be inclusions, with the Al2O3 precursor nanoparticles are dispersed and isolated by the K2SO4 nanoparticles. As the melting point of K2SO4 is 1065°C, the Al2O3 precursor nanoparticles are separated by the solid K2SO4 over the entire high-temperature phase-transition process. As a result, agglomeration and sintering of the α-Al2O3 nanoparticles are prevented, leading to monodisperse α-Al2O3 nanoparticles. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
