Structural Modification of KAISiO4 Minerals [PDF]
Kalsilite, a polymorph of KAISiO4 is an end member of nepheline-kalsilite series and the mineral was syn-thesized by hydorhermal methods. The synthetic kalsilite is hexagonal, P63, with a=5.151(5), c=8.690(8) A.

Inorganic consolidants, such as ethyl silicate, nanolime and ammonium oxalate, have proven to be effective for certain materials, but each has its drawbacks. This has recently led to the investigation of hydroxyapatite (HAP) as a novel inorganic consolidant, which demonstrated excellent performance on carbonate stones.

Clay minerals and sedimentary basin history [PDF]
Clay minerals in the mud and soil that coat the Earth's surface are part of a clay cycle that breaks down and creates rock in the crust. Clays generated by surface weathering and shallow diagenetic processes are transformed into mature clay mineral ...
