“…Other interesting examples of materials with useful applications in the field of sorption are the synthetic analog of the sitinakite mineral [14,15]-CTS, the alkali cation analogs of the pharmacosiderite mineral (KFe 4 (AsO 4 )(OH) 4 •7H 2 O) [16,17]-GTS-1 [18,19], and the ivanyukite mineral [20,21]-SIV [18,[22][23][24]. All these synthetic materials have attracted interest in the fields of catalysis [25,26], adsorption [27], separation and ion exchange [15,20,[28][29][30][31] due to their branched channel system in the crystal structure with sufficiently wide internal channels (Figure 1). All of these materials are of the pharmacosiderite type and have a similar crystalline structure and morphology.…”
