Synthetic alunite was obtained by two different synthesis methods. Powder data obtained with a standard Bragg-Brentano geometry of two analyzed samples are reported for a broad angular range. The chemical analysis as well as the unit-cell dimensions indicate that the analyzed alunite is K and Al deficient and contains excess water. A need for high resolution diffraction experiments is expressed.
