This report embodies recommendations on zeolite nomenclature approved by the International Mineralogical Association, Commission on New Minerals and Mineral Names. In a working definition of a zeolite mineral used for this review, structures containing an interrupted framework of tetrahedra are accepted where other zeolitic properties prevail, and complete substitution by elements other than Si and Al is allowed. Separate species are recognized in topologically distinctive compositional series in which different extra-framework cations are the most abundant in atomic proportions. To name these, the appropriate chemical symbol is attached by a hyphen to the series name as a suffix, except for the names harmotome, pollucite and wairakite in the phillipsite and analcime series. Differences in space-group symmetry and in order-disorder relationships in zeolites having the same topologically distinctive framework do not in general provide adequate grounds for recognition of separate species. Zeolite species are not to be distinguished solely on the ratio Si : Al except for heulandite (Si : Al < 4.0) and clinoptilolite (Si : Al ≥ 4.0). Dehydration, partial hydration, and overhydration are not sufficient grounds for the recognition of separate species of zeolites. Use of the term "ideal formula" should be avoided in referring to a simplified or averaged formula of a zeolite. Newly recognized species in compositional series are as follows: brewsterite-Sr, -Ba, chabazite-Ca, -Na, -K, clinoptilolite-K, -Na, -Ca, dachiardite-Ca, -Na, erionite-Na, -K, -Ca, faujasite-Na, -Ca, -Mg, ferrierite-Mg, -K, -Na, gmelinite-Na, -Ca, -K, heulandite-Ca, -Na, -K, -Sr, levyne-Ca, -Na, paulingite-K, -Ca, phillipsite-Na, -Ca, -K, and stilbite-Ca, -Na. Key references, type locality, origin of name, chemical data, IZA structure-type symbols, space-group symmetry, unit-cell dimensions, and comments on structure are listed for 13 compositional series, 82 accepted zeolite mineral species, and three of doubtful status. Herschelite, leonhardite, svetlozarite, and wellsite are discredited as mineral species names. Obsolete and discredited names are listed.Keywords: zeolite nomenclature, herschelite, leonhardite, svetlozarite, wellsite, brewsterite, chabazite, clinoptilolite, dachiardite, erionite, faujasite, ferrierite, gmelinite, heulandite, levyne, paulingite, phillipsite, stilbite. SOMMAIRECe rapport contient les recommandations à propos de la nomenclature des zéolites, telles qu'approuvées par l'Association minéralogique internationale, commission des nouveaux minéraux et des noms de minéraux. Dans la définition d'une zéolite retenue ici, les structures contenant une trame interrompue de tétraèdres sont acceptées dans les cas où les autres propriétés satisfont les critères de cette famille de minéraux. De plus, il peut y avoir remplacement complet de Si et Al par d'autres éléments. Des espèces distinctes font partie de séries de compositions dont l'agencement topologique est le même, le cation dominant ne faisant pas partie de la trame ...

Optical surface second harmonic measurements of isotropic thin-film metals: Gold, silver, copper, aluminum, and tantalum Phase formation has been studied in Au-AI thin-film interactions by means of 4 He+ MeV backscattering and x-ray diffraction techniques. The films were annealded at temperatures low enough for no liquid phase formation. Au 4 Al, AU s AI2' Au 2 Al, AuAl, and AuAl 2 were detected from samples prepared by depositing the exact stoichiometry quantities of Au and AI. The phase formation sequence was determined. The first phase formed is Au s A1 2 ; the others are observed with the disappearence of one phase previously formed. For instance, Au 4 Al grows only when all Al is reacted and, on the other hand, AuAl 2 when all Au is reacted. The sequence of the phases in the Au-AI interactions cannot be interpreted on the basis of pure thermodynamic or kinetic arguments and a composite mechanism is proposed.
