Description
Summary:The synthesized phases with chemical composition M 6 2 + Al 3 OH 18 A + SO 4 2 12 H 2 O (M 2+  = Mn, Mg, Zn; A +  = Li, Na or K) were evaluated in relation to their thermal behavior by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). In the shigaite (M 2+  = Mn), natroglaucocerinite (M 2+  = Zn) and motukoreaite (M 2+  = Mg) phases, the TGA measurements indicated that all samples were dehydrated up to 200 °C in two steps, followed by dehydroxylation above 300 °C. After the thermal treatment at 1000 °C, formation of oxides/spinels were observed for the shigaite and natroglaucocerinite phases, while for motukoreaite, oxides, spinels and MgSO 4 were detected. XRD indicated a reduction in the basal distance from around 11 Å for the fully hydrated phases to around 7 Å for the dehydrated phases. The thermal treatments of some samples at 100 °C, 150 °C and 200 °C indicated that in all phases, intercalated sulfate and alkaline metal ions can be dehydrated and rehydrated. As indicated by FTIR, at 200 °C sulfate could be grafted to the layers and at 300 °C, for all the phases, a stable mixture of amorphous materials was obtained, which could not be rehydrated.
