The amorphous alumina was obtained by flash calcination of Bayer gibbsite[$Al(OH)_3$aluminum trihydroxide]. Rehydration and pore characteristics of $r-A1_2O_3$ prepared from rehydrated amorphous alumina were investigated. Crystal phases of pseudo-boehmite and bayerite were changed when amorphous alumina was hydrated at various conditions such as time, the ratio of water/alumina and pH. Specific surface areas and pore volumes of $r- A1_{2O}_3$ were influenced by the reaction time, water/alumina and PH of rehydration. The total pore volume of $r-A1_{2O}_3$increases with increasing the reaction time and ratio of water/alumina. Especially, the pure pseudo-boehmite of single phase could be prepared, when amorphous alumina was hydrated in the range of pH 6.5-8.0 in water/alumina= 10 at $90^{circ}C$ for 7hr. The $r-Al_{2O}_3$, obtained by calcination of the prepared pseudo-boehmite at $500^{circ}C$ for 2hrs, is characterized by the specific surface area of $265m^2$/g, total pore volume of $0.75cm^3$/g.
