Rietveld refinement of KLaTiO4 from X-ray powder data

چکیده
Potassium lanthanum titanate(IV), KLaTiO(4), has been synthesized by conventional solid-state reaction. It crystallizes isotypically with the NaLnTiO(4) (Ln = La, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Y and Lu) family. Five of the six atoms in the asymmetric unit (one K, one La, one Ti and two O atoms) are situated on sites with 4mm symmetry, whereas one O atom has 2mm. site symmetry. The crystal structure can be described as being composed of single layers of distorted corner-sharing TiO(6) octa-hedra extending parallel to (001). The layers are alternately separated by K(+) and La(3+) cations along [001]. The coordination number of both K(+) and La(3+) cations is nine, resulting in distorted KO(9) and LaO(9) polyhedra.

Combining the Advantages of Powder X‐ray Diffraction and NMR Crystallography in Structure Determination of the Pharmaceutical Material Cimetidine Hydrochloride
We report the crystal structure of the anhydrous phase of cimetidine hydrochloride, determined directly from powder X-ray diffraction data. The material was prepared by dehydration of the readily obtained monohydrate form of cimetidine hydrochloride, the only form for which a crystal structure has previously been reported. As such, solid-state dehydration processes typically yield the product p...
متن کاملEstimation of purity of chrysotile asbestos by X-ray diffractometry/Rietveld refinement.
X-ray powder diffractometry/Rietveld refinement was employed to estimate the purity of several chrysotile powders for calibrating standards. α-Corundum powder was mixed into each chrysotile sample as an internal standard. X-ray diffractometry was performed on these mixtures, and the mass fractions of amorphous and impurity phase content were calculated using Rietveld refinement. The chrysotile ...
