  2. Cheluviation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cheluviation

    The eluviation of chelate compounds is the downward movement of soil chelates. The eluviation of chelate compounds can be affected by: Acidity. Organic acids produced under acidic conditions can increase the solubility of metal elements such as iron and aluminum, thereby enhancing soil eluviation. Iron and aluminum are easily leached at low pH.

  3. Atomic layer deposition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_layer_deposition

    The TFEL display prototype presented consisted of a ZnS layer between two aluminum oxide dielectric layers, all made in an ALE process using ZnCl 2 + H 2 S and AlCl 3 + H 2 O as the reactants. The first large-scale proof-of-concept of ALE-EL displays were the flight information boards installed in the Helsinki-Vantaa airport in 1983. [11]

  4. Aluminium oxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminium_oxide

    Aluminium oxide (or aluminium(III) oxide) is a chemical compound of aluminium and oxygen with the chemical formula Al 2 O 3. It is the most commonly occurring of several aluminium oxides, and specifically identified as aluminium oxide. It is commonly called alumina and may also be called aloxide, aloxite, or alundum in various forms and ...

  5. Soil acidification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil_acidification

    Aluminum is one of the few elements capable of making soil more acidic. [22] This is achieved by aluminum taking hydroxide ions out of water, leaving hydrogen ions behind. [23] As a result, the soil is more acidic, which makes it unlivable for many plants. Another consequence of aluminum in soils is aluminum toxicity, which inhibits root growth ...

  6. Deposition (geology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deposition_(geology)

    Deposition is the geological process in which sediments, soil and rocks are added to a landform or landmass. Wind, ice, water, and gravity transport previously weathered surface material, which, at the loss of enough kinetic energy in the fluid, is deposited, building up layers of sediment.

  7. Laterite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laterite

    Soil layers, from soil down to bedrock: A represents soil; B represents laterite, a regolith; C represents saprolite, a less-weathered regolith; below C is bedrock Tropical weathering (laterization) is a prolonged process of chemical weathering which produces a wide variety in the thickness, grade, chemistry and ore mineralogy of the resulting ...

  8. Sesquioxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sesquioxide

    For example, aluminium oxide Al 2 O 3 and phosphorus(III) oxide P 4 O 6 are sesquioxides. Many sesquioxides contain a metal in the +3 oxidation state and the oxide ion O 2−, e.g., aluminium oxide Al 2 O 3, lanthanum(III) oxide La 2 O 3 and iron(III) oxide Fe 2 O 3. Sesquioxides of iron and aluminium are found in soil.

  9. Aluminium oxides - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminium_oxides

    Aluminium oxides or aluminum oxides are a group of inorganic compounds with formulas including aluminium (Al) and oxygen (O). Aluminium(I) oxide ( Al 2 O ) Aluminium(II) oxide ( AlO ) (aluminium monoxide)
