Reversal of the kyanite-sillimanite inversion has been accomplished hydrothermally at 750 degrees C. The inversion pressure at 750 degrees C is 8.1 +/- 0.4 kilobars. The calculated pressuretemperature...
Kyanite, a commercial mineral has been utilized as an adsorbent for the removal of heavy metals, such as Ni(II), Zn(II), Cr(VI) and Cu(II) from electroplating wastewater. The effect of contact time, p...
The well-characterized minerals kyanite and andalusite have long presented great challenges in using solid state 27Al NMR to determine the isotropic chemical shift deltaCS, quadrupole coupling constan...
The metastable kyaniteandalusite equilibrium in the Al(2)SiO(5) system has been reversed at 700 degrees , 750 degrees , and 800 degrees C at elevated water pressures, with a variety of natural and syn...
The crystal structures and the enthalpy-pressure phase diagram of P(3)N(5) were investigated by using density functional methods. Applying both approximations to the electron exchange and correlation ...
