Multiphase Materials

Current versions of the J.C.P.D.S. Powder Diffraction File Include some 26,000 standard patterns and this number is Increasing at the rate of around 1500 patterns per year. Although the actual number of patterns still represents a relatively small fraction of the total number of phases possible, it does include the majority of well known phases. A variety of search/match schemes have been designed under the auspices of the Joint Committee on Powder Diffraction Standards and these include data retrieval methods based both on hand and computer searching.Since the majority of analytical problems involve multiphase materials, one of the greatest problems in qualitative identification is the “unscrambling” of the various phase patterns to allow matches to be made with standard patterns of pure materials.

AbstractProcedures and tools for evaluation of reference x-ray powder patterns in the JCPDSICDD Powder Diffraction File are illustrated by a review of air-stable binary oxides. The reference patterns are evaluated using an available microcomputer version of the NBS*A1DS83 editorial program and PDF patterns retrieved directly from the CD-ROM in the program's input format. The patterns are compared to calculated and experimental diffractograms. The majority of the oxide patterns have been found to be in good agreement with the calculated and observed diffractograms, but are often missing some weak reflections routinely observed with a modern diffractometer. These weak reflections are added to the PDF pattern. For the remainder of the phases, patterns are redetermined.

AbstractA systematic survey of phase formation in the Na2O-ZrO2-SiO2 system has revealed inconsistencies in the number and identity of ternary phases, and of their X-ray powder data. The phases Na2ZrSiO5, Na4Zr2Si3O12, Na2ZrSi2O7 and Na2ZrSi4O11 were prepared by solid-state reaction and their experimental X-ray diffraction patterns measured. Calculated X-ray diffraction patterns were generated by computer, using published crystallographic data, and critically compared with the experimentally observed values. The unit-cell constants were redefined to a greater accuracy than the presently accepted values published in the Powder Diffraction File. Only Na4Zr2Si3O12 produced an X-ray diffraction pattern which agreed with that previously published; those from the other phases were significantly different in both the intensities and positions of the reflections. Data for synthetic Na2ZrSi4O11 identical to the mineral vlasovite are reported.

Solid Solution Range

Powder X-ray diffraction was used to investigate the solid solution range of the Bi14SrxCa12−xO33 series in the Bi–Sr–Ca–O system. Solid solution forms over the range 1≤x≤7 in Bi14SrxCa12−xO33. Experimental X-ray reference patterns of selected members with x=1, 3, 5, and 7 have been prepared for the powder diffraction file (PDF). These phases are monoclinic, C2/m, with cell parameter a ranging from 21.473(4) to 21.868(4) Å, b from 4.3564(9) to 4.3898(9) Å, c from 12.753(2) to 12.962(2) Å, β from 102.91(2)° to 102.79(1)°, and V from 1162.9(3) to 1213.5(3) Å3, respectively. These parameters increase monotonically as Ca is continuously replaced by the larger Sr.

X-ray structural characterization and X-ray reference powder patterns have been determined for two series of iron- and cobalt-containing layered compounds (BaxSr1−x)2Co2Fe12O22 (x = 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8) and (BaxSr1−x)Co2Fe16O27 (x = 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8). The (BaxSr1−x)2Co2Fe12O22 series of compounds crystallized in the space group R$\bar 3$m (No. 166), with Z = 3. The structure is essentially that of the Y-type hexagonal ferrite, BaM2+Fe63+O11. The lattice parameters range from a = 5.859 15(8) to 5.843 72(8) Å, and c = 43.4975(9) to 43.3516(9) Å for x = 0.2 to 0.8, respectively. The (BaxSr1−x)Co2Fe16O27 series (W-type hexagonal ferrite) crystallized in the space group P63/mmc (No. 194) and Z = 2. The lattice parameters range from a = 5.902 05(12) to 5.8979(2) Å and c = 32.9002(10) to 32.8110(13) Å for x = 0.2 to 0.8. Results of measurements of the Seebeck coefficient and resistivity of these two sets of samples indicated that they are insulators. Powder X-ray diffraction patterns of these two series of compounds have been submitted to be included in the Powder Diffraction File.

Florencite-(Nd) [(Nd,Ce)Al3(PO4)2(OH)6], was first described by Milton and Bastron (1971) from fracture surfaces in weathered cherts of the Franciscan Complex, south of Sausalito in Marin County, California. Florencite-(Nd) occurred there as a moderate-brown pulverulent earthy material; individual crystals were not discernible under microscopic examination. A semi-quantitative spectrographic analysis showed the presence of Nd (3 wt. %) and Ce (0.5 wt. %). No powder data for florencite-(Nd) exists in the current powder diffraction file.

AbstractThe identification of crystalline phases by x-ray diffraction, either by powder or single crystal techniques requires a dependable body of reference data. It is not only necessary to have data on each phase which are accurate and complete, it also is desirable to have data on as wide a range of compounds as possible, and to have the data organized in such a manner as to be readily usable. The outstanding compilations which approach these goals are the Powder Diffraction File and Crystal Data.The Powder Diffraction File, published by the Joint Committee on Powder Diffraction Standards has data covering about 22,500 phases, both organic and inorganic. These data are of various degrees of accuracy as is indicated by symbols. The File is continuously being improved by the addition of evaluated data from the general literature and by data produced by supporting projects, the principal one being the Joint Committee Associateship at the National Bureau of Standards.To be noted in the File with a star, and to be truly considered standard data a powder pattern must be complete in the sense of including all reflections above the minimum “d” spacing covered, both weak lines and those with large “d” spacings. Since the best test of a pattern is its own internal consistency, the reflections must all have hkl's assigned and must show a good agreement between the spacings observed and those calculated from a refined cell, and they must be consistent with the known space group. This agreement can be best obtained by the use of an internal standard and a computer program. The intensities should be measured by a method which minimizes the effect of crystal orientation.The PDF is provided with search procedure manuals arranged on a scheme of the strongest lines to help in locating data matching that from an unknovm. A computer program for rapid searching is available. A recent development is the inclusion of a “reference intensity” to aid in estimating the quantitative analysis of mixtures.Crystal Data is a compilation now in the third edition made at the National Bureau of Standards and published by the Joint Committee on Powder Diffraction Standards. It contains data on the unit cell parameters of over 24,000 phases. These data are arranged by crystal system and axial ratios to simplify identification of phases from unit cell data obtained from Single crystal cameras.Both of these large compilations are also important reference sources for crystallographic information giving structural information and literature references.

The crystal structure of pazopanib hydrochloride Form 1 has been refined using synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction data and optimized using density functional theory techniques. Pazopanib hydrochloride crystallizes in space group P-1 (#2) with a = 8.45008(6), b = 8.71310(12), c = 16.05489(35) Å, α = 79.5996(9), β = 86.4784(5), γ = 87.3764(3)°, V = 1159.724(9) Å3, and Z = 2. The crystal structure is essentially identical to that of CSD Refcode CEVYEK. There are four strong N–H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds to the chloride anion. Several additional weaker N–H⋯Cl and C–H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds are also present. A variety of C–H⋯O, C–H⋯N, and N–H⋯S hydrogen bonds also contribute to the lattice energy. The powder pattern has been submitted to ICDD® for inclusion in the Powder Diffraction File™.

Intensity Information

The identification of unknown phases using diffraction data and the JCPDS-ICDD Powder Diffraction File (PDF)[1] is a three-step process. First, the Search step rapidly screens the entire PDF to produce a list of candidate solutions that correspond to the unknown phase’s d-spacings and chemistry. Second, the Match step examines closely every aspect of each phase in the candidate list, vs. the unknown, to make the identification. Third, the Decision step: does the solution found make crystal-chemical-thermodynamic sense? A hindrance to the identification process for electron diffraction applications is that the PDF consists of X-ray powder diffraction data. There are two problems: First, while X-ray diffraction intensity data compares well to electron diffraction intensities for randomly-oriented, small-grained specimens, in the main, intensities from the two methods are not the same. The differing intensities exacerbate the problem of unknown phase searching for electron diffraction because X-ray derived Search/Matching methods rely heavily on intensity information.
