Alpha alumina platelet particles were synthesized from the powder mixture of ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3and\;Na_2SO_4$ with the use of microwave heating. The characteristics of the particles such as particle size and particle size distribution were compared with those of particles obtained from the same mixture without the use of microwave. Sample with the use of microwave showed small particle size and narrow particle size distribution compared to that without the use of microwave.
