Abstract:New data on the crystal structure and isomorphism of extra-framework components in the cancrinite-group mineral tounkite have been obtained using chemical and single-crystal X-ray diffraction data, as well as infrared, Raman, ESR, UV–Vis–near-IR absorption and photoluminescence spectroscopy methods. The crystal structure of tounkite is based on the aluminosilicate framework formed by the САСАСВСВСАСВ stacking sequence with ordered Si and Al atoms The framework hosts Losod and liottite cages as well as columns … Show more
