摘要：A single-crystal structure of aluminum sulfate hexadecahydrate (Al-2(SO4)(3)16H(2)O) was captured with a polarizing microscope. The structure was similar to a hexagonal plate and consistent with the predicted morphology derived from the modified AE model. An octagonal plate morphology was first obtained in a vacuum but was transformed into hexagonal plate-like when the effect of the solvent with two disappearing {1 1 0} and {1 0 -1} faces was considered.
