The Stability

SummaryThe stability field of analcime solid solutions in the system NaAlSi3O8-NaAlSiO4-H2O has been previously determined by Kim and Burley (1971a). These experiments are re-examined with a view to determining the variations of the room-temperature cell parameters of analcime as a function of temperature of synthesis and composition. It is shown from this evidence that most of the analcime solid solutions in these experiments are equilibrium compositions. The increase in the cell dimension of quenched analcime solid solution is found to be 5 × 10−5 Å/°C. It is suggested that birefringence in analcime is induced by low water-pressure relative to total pressure. A phase transition appears to be observed in quenched analcimes of this study and is thought to be the same as that in the Golden analcime reported by Yoder and Weir (1960).

AbstractEXAFS spectroscopy has been used to monitor changes in divalent cation site geometries across the P2/c-P1̄ phase transition in the sanmartinite (ZnWO4)-cuproscheelite (CuWO4) solid solution at ambient and liquid nitrogen temperatures. In the ZnWO4 end member, Zn occupies axially-compressed ZnO6 octahedra with two axial Zn-O bonds at approximately 1.95 Å and four square planar Zn-O bonds at approximately 2.11 Å. The substitution of Zn by Cu generates a second Zn environment with four short square planar Zn-O bonds and two longer axial Zn-O bonds. The proportion of the latter site increases progressively as the Cu content increases. Cu EXAFS reveals that the CuO6 octahedra maintain their Jahn-Teller axially-elongate geometry throughout the majority of the solid solution and only occur as axially-compressed octahedra well within the stability field of the Zn-rich phase with monoclinic long-range order.

The Stability

Phase equilibria were determined in the P–T range of 0.5–10 Kb and 150–900 °C in the system NaAlSi3O8 – NaAlSiO4 – H2O. Two isobaric (2 Kb and 5.15 Kb) T–X phase diagrams (projected to a dry base) were completely determined and show that the stability field of analcite solid solutions has a large distorted pentagonal shape. The phase relations for the transition: nepheline hydrate I [Formula: see text] nepheline + H2O on the composition join NaAlSiO4 – H2O are not binary. It was found that there exists a narrow zone for the transition. The true P–T curve was found and determined in terms of a ternary univariant reaction: nepheline hydrate I + analcite [Formula: see text] nepheline + H2O. In the system NaAlSi3O8 – SiO2 – H2O, albite contains about 5 wt % silica in solid solution at 5.15 Kb and 670 °C.The equilibrium compositions of various univariant phases were determined essentially on the basis of the T–X phase diagrams. Another univariant reaction (zeolite species P = analcite + nepheline – hydrate I + H2O) was found at 2 Kb/215 °C and 5.15 Kb/235 °C and determined on a P–T projection. Three singular points were determined; two of them are located at 0.8 Kb/390 °C and 9.4 Kb/475 °C respectively on a univariant P–T curve for the reaction nepheline hydrate I + analcite = nepheline + H2O; the other one is located at 6 Kb/655 °C on a univariant P–T curve along which nepheline, analcite, liquid, and vapor coexist. The petrogenetic implication of analcite is discussed fully.

AbstractThe structural relations of solid solutions in the series (Sr1−xBax)Al2O4 were studied using room- and high-temperature X-ray methods, infra-red spectroscopy, and DTA. At room temperature, SrAl2O4 and solid solutions with x up to 0.31 are monoclinic, between x = 0.31 and 0.43 monoclinic and hexagonal forms coexist, and between x = 0.43 and 1.0 only hexagonal forms occur. On heating, a member of the monoclinic series of solid solutions transforms to hexagonal symmetry over a range of temperature within which both monoclinic and hexagonal forms coexist. The proportion of the hexagonal form increases instantaneously as the temperature is raised. The transformation temperature decreases with increasing BaAl2O4 in solid solution and, in addition, the temperature width of the region of coexistence is markedly enlarged. SrAl2O4 transforms over the range 665–705 °C and (Sr0.7Ba0.3)Al2O4 over 170–405 °C. The DTA trace for SrAl2O4 shows a peak at 677 °C. On cooling, the transformations show hysteresis of 15 to 25 °C.The coexisting monoclinic and hexagonal forms are believed to be isochemical, and discontinuities in cell parameters occur within the region of coexistence both in the compositional series at room temperature and in the elevated temperature transformation experiments. The low-to-high transformation is accompanied by a volume change of −0.2 to −0.3 %, and is believed to be first-order displacive with additional characteristics similar to those of martensitic transformations.The thermal expansion behaviour of structures in the (Sr,Ba)Al2O4, series indicates that two tilt systems are operative: co-operative rotation of tetrahedra about the c-axis, and tilting of tetrahedra relative to the 0001 plane.The results for the (Sr,Ba)Al2O4 series are shown to be invaluable in reinterpreting the structural behaviour of members of the nepheline and leucite groups of minerals.

Spinel Solid Solutions

Phase relations in two binary systems MgAl2O4–ZnAl2O4 and MgAl2O4–Mg2TiO4 have been studied and phase diagrams for them have been constructed. Based on the data of x-ray phase and crystal-optical analyses, the formation of a continuous series of solid solutions with spinel structure between the terminal members of the systems studied has been established. In the MgAl2O4–ZnAl2O4 system the solid solution is stable in the range from room temperature to melting temperature. In the MgAl2O4–Mg2TiO4 system the solid solution decomposes below 1380 °C, yielding the formation of limited regions of homogeneity on the basis of MgAlM2O4 and Mg2+2δ Ti1–δO4. Decomposition of the solid solution is accompanied by crystallization of MgTiO3.

Crystal structure of compositionally homogeneous, nanocrystalline ZrO2–CeO2 solutions was investigated by X-ray powder diffraction as a function of temperature for compositions between 50 and 65 mol % CeO2. ZrO2-50 and 60 mol % CeO2 solid solutions, which exhibit the t′-form of the tetragonal phase at room temperature, transform into the cubic phase in two steps: t′-to-t″ followed by t″-to-cubic. But the ZrO2-65 mol % CeO2, which exhibits the t″-form, transforms directly to the cubic phase. The results suggest that t′-to-t″ transition is of first order, but t″-to-cubic seems to be of second order.

This study experimentally investigates the Kalsilite-Nepheline-Diopside-Silica system at high pressure and temperature, with emphasis on silica-undersaturated volume (leucite-nepheline-diopside — Lct-Nph-Di; and kalsilite-nepheline-diopside — Kls + Nph + Di — planes), at 4.0 GPa (~120 km deep), temperatures up to 1,400ºC and dry conditions, to better understand the influence of K2O, Na2O, and CaO in alkali-rich silica-undersaturated magma genesis. In the Lct-Nph-Di plane, we determined the stability fields for kalsilite (Klsss), nepheline (Nphss) and clinopyroxene (Cpxss) solid solutions, wollastonite (Wo) and sanidine (Sa); and three piercing points: (i) pseudo-eutectic Kls + Nph + Di + liquid (Lct62Nph29Di9) at 1,000ºC; (ii) Kls + Sa + (Di + Wo) + liquid (Lct75Nph22Di2) at 1,200ºC; and (iii) pseudo-eutectic Kls + Di + Wo + liquid (Lct74Nph17Di9) at 1,000ºC. Kalsilite stability field represents a thermal barrier between ultrapotassic/potassic vs. sodic compositions. In the plane Kls-Nph-Di, we determined the stability fields for Klsss, Nphss and Cpxss and two aluminous phases in smaller proportions: spinel (Spl) and corundum (Crn). This plane has a piercing point in Kls + Nph + Di(± Spl) + liquid (Kls47Nph43Di10) at 1,100ºC. Our data showed that pressure extends K dissolution in Nph (up to 39 mol%) and Na in Kls (up to 27 mol%), and that these solid solutions, if present, determinate how much enriched in K and Na an alkaline magma will be in an alkaline-enriched metasomatic mantle. Additionally, we noted positive correlation between K2O and SiO2 concentration in experimental melts, negative correlation between CaO and SiO2, and no evident correlation between Na2O and SiO2.

Rate Performance

<p>Owing to its low cost, thermal stability and theoretically high capacity, Li<sub>2</sub>FeSiO<sub>4 </sub>has been a promising cathode material for high-energy-density Li-ion (Li<sup>+</sup>) battery system. However, its poor rate performance and high voltage polarisation attributed to innately slow Li<sup>+</sup> kinetics at room temperature, has fundamentally curbed its ascent into prominence. Here, the rate performance of Li<sub>2</sub>FeSiO<sub>4</sub> at high temperatures in electrolyte comprising molten salt (ionic liquid) was investigated. Subsequently, a comparison of the phase transition behaviour observed at both high-temperature and room-temperature cycling was elucidated. Our results show that remarkable rate performance with good cyclability in conjunction with low voltage polarisation is attained upon cycling of Li<sub>2</sub>FeSiO<sub>4</sub> at high temperatures, due to the faster phase transformation from unstable monoclinic structures to thermodynamically stable orthorhombic structures triggered by elevated temperature. What this study adds to the burgeoning body of research work relating to the silicates is that the initially slow phase transformation behaviour observed at room temperature can significantly be enhanced upon cycling at elevated temperatures.</p>

Thermosalient crystals that exhibit macro-scale motion upon phase transition could be useful as actuators that are capable of converting thermal energy into motion or mechanical work in macroscopic devices.[1] The application capability of these miniature actuators for energy conversion depends on the temperature range and dynamics of transition. While the thermo-mechanical performance cannot be systematically varied with a pure molecular crystal, solid solutions could present a way to intentionally tune both the dynamics and the temperature of the transition in a continuous manner (Figure 1). To verify this hypothesis, Zn(2,2'-bpy)Br2,[2] was selected as a thermosalient material which could form solid solutions (or mixed complexes) with Zn(2,2'-bpy)Cl2. Only one form (isomorphous to one of the two Zn(2,2'-bpy)Br2forms) has been reported for the chloride.[3] The results indicate that indeed, the two complexes form solid solutions in varying ratios. The mixed crystals undergo the same phase transformation as the pure Zn(2,2'-bpy)Br2at a Cl/Br-ratio-dependent temperature. The temperature and dynamics of the thermosalient phenomenon correlates with the Cl/Br-ratio.

Olivenite-Adamite Solid Solution From Oxidation Zone in Rędziny (West Sudetes, Poland)An extensive hydrothermal polymetallic mineralization with a well developed oxidation zone rich in secondary minerals occurs in dolostones several hundred meters from the Karkonosze granite at Rędziny. Using XRD and FTIR methods, mineral phases representing transitional members of the olivenite-adamite solid solution have been identified. Electron microprobe analyses reveal the most common varieties to be zincian olivenite and cuprous adamite with compositions ranging from (Cu1.17Zn0.83)(AsO4)(OH) to (Zn1.38Cu0.62)(AsO4)(OH). The two minerals are subordinate in the weathering zone which can be characterized as having been a zone of low Cu2+and Zn2+activity and with mineralizing solutions of increased pH. A high Ca2+concentration due to the ubiquitous presence of carbonate rocks resulted in the expansion of the stability field of another arsenate, conichalcite (or Zn-bearing conichalcite), which is a common mineral there.
