Thermal Stability of Woolly Erionite-K and Considerations about the Heat-Induced Behaviour of the Erionite Group

The thermal behavior of a woolly erionite-K sample (Lander County, NV, USA), chemical formula (Ca2.03Na0.73K2.52Mg0.26)[Al8.22Si27.78O71.80]·35.94H2O, was investigated in the 303–1173 K thermal range by in situ X-ray powder diffraction. Present data suggest a general thermally-induced volume contrac...
