Abstract

The effect of calcium on the hydrothermal syntheses of aluminosilicate frameworks in the presence of carbonate at 150 and 220 degreesC has been studied. Under calcium-free conditions the formation of the cancrinite framework (220 degreesC), [Na-8(CO3)(.)(H2O)(n)][AlSiO4](6)-CAN, and a disordered cancrinite/sodalite intergrowth (150 degreesC) are observed in agreement with the literature. Addition of calcium to the synthesis media,results in its incorporation into these framework structures to give [NaxCay(CO3)({x+2y-6}/2)(H2O)(n)][AlSiO4](6)-CAN, as evidenced by decreases in the cell volumes and EDAX analysis. At high concentrations of calcium a new phase, NaCaSiO3OH, forms and the structure of this material, which contains ordered strongly. hydrogen-bonded SiO3OH units, ha's been defined using neutron diffraction.
