Different models are discussed to interpret the presence of kyanite as a stable phase in contact aureoles especially in the andalusite-, sillimanitebearing aureoles. In such aureoles the polymorphic sequence kyanite → andalusite → sillimanite can be explained in terms of an essentially isobaric path during which kyanite initially crystallises from the breakdown of pyrophyllite or more likely mu...

In this study, aluminosilicate MCM-41 has been found to be an efficient catalyst for reaction betweendifferent benzaldehyde derivatives and 5,5-dimethyl-1,3-cyclohexanedione to give open chain analogue of1,8-dioxo-octahydroxanthene in excellent yields. No evidence for the formation of cyclization products wasobserved. The catalyst can be used several times after recovery.

The optical, magnetic and structural properties of Eu doped low silica calcium aluminosilicate glasses were investigated. The optical absorption coefficient presented two bands at 39,246 and 29,416 cm(-1), which were assigned respectively to the [Formula in text], and [Formula in text] transitions of Eu(2+). The fluorescence measured at 300 K on a sample doped with 0.5 wt% of Eu(2)O(3) exhibite...

The presented report focuses on an in-depth detailed characterization of immobilized methyltrioxorhenium (MTO), giving catalysts with a wide spectra of utilization. The range of mesoporous materials with different SiO₂/Al₂O₃ ratios, namely mesoporous alumina (MA), aluminosilicates type Siral (with Al content 60%-90%) and MCM-41, were used as supports for immobilization of MTO. The tested suppor...

This paper investigates the hydrated phase assemblage, microstructure, and gel composition of sodium hydroxide (NaOH)-activated fly ash–slag blends with either low-calcium or high-calcium ash. The results show that nature precipitated calcium–aluminosilicate–hydrate (C-A-S-H) alkali aluminosilicate-hydrate (N-A-S-H) depends on ash slag-to-fly ratio. However, regardless ratio, a universal linear...
