Qualitative Analysis of delta-phase Layered Crystalline Sodium Disilicate---X-ray Diffraction Method

4.1 Principle

Every crystalline substance possesses specific structural parameters, and under X-ray radiation of a given wavelength, it exhibits unique polymorphisms characteristic of that substance.

Crystal diffraction patterns. The diffraction patterns of each phase indicate the chemical bonding state of the elements in that phase. Based on the relationship between polycrystalline diffraction patterns and crystalline materials...

This unique correspondence allows for the comparison of the diffraction data of the substance to be tested with the diffraction data of various known substances, thereby enabling the determination of the phase.

Sexual analysis.

4.2 Instruments and Equipment

4.2.1 X-ray diffractometer.

4.2.2 Agate mortar and pestle.

4.2.3 Sample preparation apparatus.

4.3 Procedure

4.3.1 Sample Preparation

Weigh approximately 2g of the sample and grind it in a clean, dry agate mortar until the particle size is below 5µm, i.e., when rubbed between clean, dry fingers.

The sample should be free of grittiness. Place the ground sample into the sample holder, fill it completely, and then gently press it down. The pressure should be enough to make the sample stand upright without collapsing after pressing.

4.3.2 Measurement

Turn on the equipment cooling system and start the X-ray diffractometer, preheating for 30 minutes. Start the X-ray diffractometer control system and perform [operations/processes] on the diffractometer.

Reference calibration. Under CuKalpha radiation, the sample (4.3.1) was scanned and measured in the range of 2theta from 10° to 50°.

4.3.3 Data Processing

Using a data processing program, the X-ray diffraction pattern of the sample was obtained (see Appendix A), and the interplanar spacing (d) was marked on the diffraction peak positions.

The obtained d-values are compared with those in Table 1.Diffraction lines that match the data in Table 1 are delta-phase layered crystalline sodium disilicate.

Diffraction lines will appear; otherwise, other impurities will be present. When the content of delta-phase layered sodium disilicate in the sample is low, weaker spectral lines may not be visible.

The presence of delta-phase layered crystalline sodium disilicate can be determined by the presence of three main strong lines.
