Alpha alumina has cubic crystal structure, and gamma - rhombohedral (i.e. it is a "skewed cubic")

Due to their geometry the typical surface area of a particle is affected, and alpha alumina has fewer -OH groups than gamma alumina.

Iron oxide can also have either alpha or gamma structure, and is described on wiki http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron(III)_oxide
