Abstract

AbstractHypothetical model structures for magadiite and sodium octosilicate, based on the structure of the zeolite dachiardite, are proposed that consist of layers of 6-member rings of tetrahedra and blocks containing 5-member rings attached to both sides of the layers. The infrared (IR) and nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of magadiite and sodium octosilicate have features in common with spectra of zeolites in the ZSM-5 and mordenite groups. A peak at 1225 cm-1 in the IR spectra of magadiite and sodium octosilicate is characteristic of zeolites containing 5-member rings, such as ZSM-5- and mordenite-type zeolites. The defect structures of pentasil zeolites may therefore be akin to layered alkali metal silicates containing zeolite-like domains, in which part of the silanol groups from adjacent silicate layers are condensed (cross-linked) forming siloxane linkages.
