The rate of ZnAl 2 O 4 formation was measured for δ‐ and θ‐A1 2 0 3 in order to distinguish the reactivity of them. The reaction rate fitted to JANDER' equation and the activation energy calculated were 53 Kcal/mol for θ‐A1 2 0 3 system and 73, 79, 57, 71 Kcal/mol for δ‐A1 2 0 3 (l), (2), (3), (4) systems, respectively. The fact that θ‐A1 2 0 3 shows very high reactivity compared with that of δ‐A1 2 0 3 was found to result from the larger specific surface area of θ‐A1 2 0 3 . The reactivity of δ‐A1 2 0 3 changed by the conditions of preparation of boehmite which is a starting material of alumina.
