Evidence for the dawsonite decomposition reaction sequence is presented. Synthetic dawsonite was heated at temperatures from 250 to 800/sup 0/C and studied by X-ray powder diffraction and infrared spectroscopy. From 350 to 550/sup 0/C sodium carbonate and a low temperature form of alumina were the main products. Hydrolysis experiments showed that this heretofore unidentified alumina product is rho-alumina. At temperatures of 600/sup 0/C and above, the sodium carbonate and rho-alumina react in an incomplete solid state reaction to form crystalline sodium aluminate.
