Retrieved from https://hdl.handle.net/1911/79924.https://hdl.handle.net/1911/79924A method for forming carboxylate-alumoxane nanoparticles comprises subjecting a mixture comprising boehmite and carboxylic acid to mechanical shear. The method can be carried out at a temperature above ambient and preferably a temperature greater than 80° C., and can be carried out in the absence of a liquid phase.10 ppengUtility patentUS7115764B2
