Abstract
The influence of F content on the formation and stability of Al-rich phlogopite has been investigated. Samples with varying OH/F-ratios and nominal gel compositions of K(Mg3-xAlx) (Al1+xSi3-xO10(OH)y (F)2-y (0.0 ≤ x ≤ 0.8 and 0.5 ≤ y ≤ 1.8) were dtified using 29Si, 1H, and 19F MAS NMR spectroscopies, powder X-ray diffraction, electron-probe microanalysis, and scanning electron microscopy. The synthetic phlogopites were synthesized from sol-gels in cold-seal pressure vessels at 1073 K, 2 kbar. The main phase (phlogopite) and three other impurity phases [corundum (α-Al2O3), kalsilite (KAISiO4), and potassium aluminum hexafluoride (K3AlF6.0.5H2O)] were clearly identified by powder X-ray diffraction and electron-probe microanalysis. For phlogopite, the unit-cell parameters a0 and b0 decrease whereas c0 increases with increasing Al-content (x). The average crystal size of phlogopite is about 1-2 μm. The 29Si MAS NMR spectra show up to four resonances at approximately -91, -83, and -80 ppm, which can be assigned as Q3(n Al) signals with n = 0-3. The ideal Si/IV Al ratio calculated from the initial composition is always lower than that derived experimentally. Hydroxyl-rich compositions indicate an increased Al-content in the tetrahedral sheets, suggesting a stabilizing effect on the formation of Al-rich phlogopite. These conclusions are supported by 1H and 19F MAS NMR spectra. The 1H MAS NMR spectra show a water signal at 4.7 ppm. a signal due to Mg2AlOH at 1.8 ppm, and a signal due to Mg3OH at 0.7 ppm. The 19F MAS NMR spectra exhibit a signal for Mg2AlF at - 150 ppm, one due to AlF6 (K3AlF6·0.5H2O) at - 157 ppm, and one for Mg3F at - 174 ppm. Comparison of the 1H and 19F MAS NMR spectra for different Al-and F-contents reveals a non-statistical distribution of F- and OH-groups at the crystallographic sites in the octahedral sheets where F prefers sites coordinated by three Mg, and OH sites with Al in the next-nearest coordination sphere.
