“…The bulk-(and thus the surface-) structure of c-Al 2 O 3 is a subject of controversy [18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29], the essential aspects of which are summarized elsewhere [30][31][32]. Realistic models of high-surface-area c-Al 2 O 3 powders, even in the absence of hydroxylation, may involve a wide variety of different Al and O surface sites as discussed in, for example, Ref.…”
