Description
Some minerals are colloidal and show no X-ray diffraction patterns. Vibrational spectroscopy offers one of the few methods for the determination of the structure of these minerals. Among this group of minerals is pitticite, simply described as (Fe, AsO4, SO4, H2O). In this work, the analogue of the mineral pitticite has been synthesised. The objective of this research is to determine the molecular structure of the mineral pitticite using vibrational spectroscopy. Raman and infrared bands are attributed to the AsO43−, SO42− and water stretching and bending vibrations. The Raman spectrum of the pitticite analogue shows intense peaks at 845 and 837 cm−1 assigned to the AsO43− stretching vibrations. Raman bands at 1096 and 1182 cm−1 are attributed to the SO42− antisymmetric stretching bands. Raman spectroscopy offers a useful method for the analysis of such colloidal minerals.
Impact and interest:
Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.
These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
