The decomposition and the particle number percentage for size below 2 mm at time of 15 h were compared, particle size distribution and SEM photos of the product aluminum hydroxide were also analyzed. The results indicate that the ultrasonic treatment at 16 kHz can enhance the decomposition rate of sodium aluminate solutions, and also has effects on particle morphology and particle size distribution of aluminum hydroxide precipitated.展开更多
