Description and Uses

Aluminum(III) oxide is also called aluminum oxide. In mineral form it is called corundum and is referred to as alumina in conjunction with mining and aluminum industries. Alumina exists in hydrated forms as alumina monohydrate, Al2O3?H2O and alumina trihydrate Al2O3?3H2O. The geologic source of aluminum is the rock bauxite, which has a high percentage of hydrated aluminum oxide. The main minerals in bauxite are gibbsite (Al(OH)3), diaspore (AlO(OH)), and boehmite (AlO(OH).

Aluminum oxide is known as the mineral bauxite. Its main use is for the production of aluminum metal by electrolysis. It is also used in many other chemical reactions.
