Abstract
The invention provides a method of making an analogue of .beta.'-alumina, the analogue having a layered .beta.'-alumina spinel-type structure in which ate least some of the Na ions in the layers of Na ions separated by layers of Al and O ions in said .beta.'-alumina spinel-type structure are replaced by substitute metal cations. The substitute metal cations are mono-, d- and/or trivalent. The method comprises dispersing in a boehmite having a well developed and highly ordered crystal structure at least one oxide of the substitute metal cations or a precursor thereof to form a starting mixture, and heating the mixture to a conversion temperature at which it is converted to the analogue.
