An explosive method for producing ultrafine α-Al2O3 is developed and optimal synthe-
sis parameters are determined. Particles of ultrafine α-Al2O3 have a spherical shape
and are separated from one another. The size distribution is log-normal (number-
averaged size 70 nm and variance ). Special features of phase transitions in ul-
trafine aluminum oxide under shock-wave action are studied. Results of x-ray phase

analysis suggest stabilization of the new high-pressure phase δ-Al2O3 with a face-
centered cubic lattice with a parameter a = A.˚

Most physical methods for producing ultrafine ma- in metastable modifications: γ+ δ[2], δ+ δ-AlON [4],
terials are based on vaporization of the starting material and δ+ θ[7]. The set and proportion of the phases
and subsequent condensation of the final product [1]. are determined by synthesis conditions. The effect of
