Ab-initio crystal structure determination of a new alminum phosphate sulfate mineral

IntroductionA new mineral with the composition Al2(PO4)(SO4)(OH,F)·7H2O was found on the dump of the Lichtenberg open cast, Ronneburg, Thuringia, Germany. In the open cast and surrounding mines uranium-bearing alum shale was mined from 1951 to 1990. The Ronneburg mining area was one of the largest uranium producers in Europe. The new mineral is an alteration product of pyrite and fluorapatite ...

Using transmission XRD in Aeris to measure the crystalline to amorphous ratio in polymers

IntroductionPolymer solids can have a range of mechanical properties, at one extreme they can be very soft and elastic and at the other they can be immensely strong and rigid. Their mechanical properties can change with external conditions such as temperature and pressure. They can be used for a large range of applications from protective coatings to containers and building materials. The ...
