Abstract In this work the synthesis of hercynite from Fe2O3 and Al2O3 powders was carried out by arc-melting method under the protective argon atmosphere. The obtained material was characterized with the use of powder X-ray diffractometry (XRD) and Mössbauer spectroscopy (MS). A Mössbauer effect in hercynite obtained by the arc-melting method indicated the cations distribution in the spinel structure among the tetrahedral and octahedral interstices. The presence of Fe2+ ions was detected in both tetrahedral and octahedral sites while Fe3+ ions occupied only the octahedral interstices. The approximate formula of the obtained iron-aluminate spinel was as follows (Fe2+0.77Al3+0.23) (Fe3+0.07Fe2+0.05Al0.88)2O4.

We report precision X-ray powder-diffraction (XRD) data of single phase pure Ti2ZrAl. Ti2ZrAl samples were prepared by an arc melting method and annealed at 1000 °C for 30 days. XRD analysis was carried out on these samples and it was found that Ti2ZrAl has a DO19 structure (space group P63/mmc, No. 194). The lattice parameters are found to be a=5.961±0.001 Å and c=4.793±0.001 Å.

A new Al-Cu-Nd system alloy, the high-purity Al2Cu3Nd ternary compound, was developed and prepared with the stoichiometric amounts of elemental constituents by arc melting under argon atmosphere. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) data of Al2Cu3Nd was collected by using the Rigaku Smart Lab X-ray powder diffractometer, and all X-ray diffraction peaks of Al2Cu3Nd compound were indexed successfully with the hexagonal structure. The Rietveld refinement results of the XRD pattern for the Al2Cu3Nd compound showed that the Al2Cu3Nd compound is the hexagonal structure, space group P6/mmm (No.191) with a = 5.2397(1) Å, c = 4.1783(1) Å, V = 99.34 Å3, Z = 1. The density of the compound was 6.501 g/cm3, and its reference intensity ratio (RIR) w 1.26.

“Aging,” defined as the drift of resistance with temperature after 1000 h, was investigated for iron manganite temperature coefficient thermistors. For these devices, aging is relatively large, about 10%. The cationic distributions before and after aging were determined by Mössbauer spectroscopy. These distributions explain all the x-ray diffraction and correlated electrical data. The origin of the aging observed on iron manganites thermistors has been identified. It is due to the migration of Fe3+ ions from tetrahedral to octahedral sites of the spinel structure in order to reach a structural equilibrium.

SummaryThe crystal structure of coalingite (Mg10Fe2(OH)24(CO3)·2H2O) has been determined using single-crystal X-ray methods. The mineral is trigonal, with space group Rm, aH = 3·12, cH = 37·4 Å, Z = ½, and (0001) cleavage. The structure is of a layer type, and is based on a structural element about 12·5 Å thick in the c-direction and consisting of two brucite-like layers and one disordered layer containing carbonate ions and water molecules and resembling those in sjögrenite and pyroaurite. The unit cell comprises three of these structural elements stacked together in the c-direction. The Mg2+ and Fe3+ ions are randomly distributed among all the octahedral sites of the brucite-like layers. The structure closely resembles those of sjögrenite and pyroaurite, but has two brucite-like layers between each CO32−−H2O layer where these have one. There is a tendency to random interstratification, and the crystals appear to contain intergrown regions of brucite and of sjögrenite or pyroaurite. Coalingite-K probably has a similar structure, but with three brucite-like layers between each -H2O layer; its idealized formula is probably Mg16Fe2(OH)36(CO3).2H2O.

AbstractVernadite is a nanocrystalline turbostratic phyllomanganate containing Ni, and is widespread in surface environments and oceanic sediments. To improve our understanding of Ni uptake in this mineral, two series of analogues of vernadite (δ-MnO2) were prepared with Ni/Mn atomic ratios of 0.002—0.105 at pH4 and 0.002—0.177 at pH 7. Their structures were characterized using X-ray powder diffraction (XRD). The δ-MnO2 nano-crystals are essentially monolayers with coherent scattering domains sizes of ∼10 Å perpendicular to the layering and ∼55 Å within the layer plane. For Ni/Mn < 0.01, the layer charge deficit is apparently balanced entirely by interlayer Mn, Na and protons. At higher Ni/Mn, Ni occupies the same site as interlayer Mn above and below vacant sites within the MnO2 layer and at sites along the edges of the layer. However, the layer charge is balanced differently at the two pH values. At pH 4, Ni uptake is accompanied by a reduction in structural Na and protons, whereas interlayer Mn remains strongly bound to the layers. At pH 7, interlayer Mn is less strongly bound and is partially replaced by Ni. The results of this study also suggest that the number of vacant octahedral sites and multi-valent charge-copmpensating interlayer species are underestimated by the currently used structure models of δ-MnO2.

The isotypic carbides Ln4C7 (Ln = Ho, Er, Tm, Lu) were prepared by arc-melting of the elemental components, followed by annealing at 1300 °C. The positions of the metal and of some carbon atoms of the monoclinic crystal structure of LU4C7 were determined from X-ray powder data, and the last carbon positions were found and refined from neutron powder diffraction data: P21/c, a = 360.4(1), b = 1351.4(3), c = 629.0(2) pm, β = 104.97(2)°, Z = 2, R = 0.026 for 429 structure factors and 15 positional parameters. The structure contains isolated carbon atoms with octahedral lutetium coordination and linear C3-units, with C-C bond lengths of 132(1) and 135(1) pm. This carbide may therefore be considered as derived from methane and propadiene. The hydrolysis of LU4C7 with distilled water yields mainly methane and propine, while the hydrolyses of the corresponding holmium and erbium carbides resulted in relatively large amounts of saturated and unsaturated C2-hydrocarbons in addition to the expected products methane and propine. The structure comprises two-dimensionally infinite NaCl-type building elements, which are separated by the C3-units. It may be described as a stacking variant of a previously reported structure of HO4C7, now designated as the a-modification. The Lu4C7-type β -modification was obtained at higher temperatures. Its structure was refined by the Rietveld method from X-ray powder data to a residual R = 0.037 for 320 F values and 15 positional parameters. Lu4C7 is Pauli paramagnetic; β -HO4C7 and Er4C7 show Curie-Weiss behavior with magnetic ordering temperatures of less than 20 K.

Abstract LaAlSi2 (a = 4.196(2), c = 11.437(7) Å; P3̄ml; Z = 2) was synthesized by arc-melting of preheated mixtures of the elements. The compound was investigated by means of X-ray methods and by neutron diffraction. The crystal structure can be described as a stacking variant of two different segments. The first one corresponds to the CaAl2Si2 structure type (LaAl2Si2), the second one with the A1B2 structure type (LaSi2). The segments are stacked along [001]. The electronic structure of the compound is discussed on the basis of LMTO band structure calculations.
