NMR, XRD and IR study on microcrystalline opals

Abstract: Abstract. Microcrystalline opal-CT and opal-C were investigated by 298i MAS NMR and 298i {1H} cross polarisation MAS NMR spectroscopy, X-ray small angle scattering, X-ray powder diffraction and infrared absorption spectroscopy. The results are compared with those for non-crystalline precious opal (opal-AG), non-crystalline hyalite (opal-AN), moderately disordered cristobalite and with well ordered low-cristobalite and low-tridymite.Opal-C is confirmed to be strongly stacking disordered low-cristobalite with ab… Show more

“…1-C and 1-G) has a feature in which the cristobalite peaks are broad compared with well-crystallized cristobalite such as SRM 1879. This type of cristobalite has been called disordered cristobalite 21) and opal-C 22,23) . The XRD patterns of some opal-C and disordered cristobalite silicas are similar to each other, such as the peak position and peak width of the strongest peak 21) .…”

“…En todas las muestras con excepción de MQ-1,TQ-3,CB-11 y S-6, aparecen un conjunto de reflexiones próximas a 3,9 y 3,8 Å que son asignables a los diferentes politipos de tridimita que pueden formar parte de los interestratificados (5,8) y que se marcan en el perfil con pequeños hombros en el intervalo 22-23º 2Θ. Después de los calentamientos las reflexiones observadas en las muestras naturales normalmente se conservan, apareciendo como nuevas, en muchos casos, 2,84 Å y 3,14 Å que corresponden a la cristobalita α que se crea con el tratamiento térmico.…”

“…Este pico no suele tener valor fijo porque es consecuencia de la confluencia de las reflexiones (101) de la cristobalita y (002) de la tridimita seudohexagonal (5). En las muestras estudiadas varia entre 4,069 Å y 4,119 Å, sin tener relación con el origen hidrotermal o sedimentario de los ópalos y presenta mayor intensidad en aquellas muestras de ópalo que poseen un perfil de dos picos ( tabla III).…”
