Materials Data on KMg3Al(SiO4)3 by Materials Project
Abstract
KMg3Al(SiO4)3 crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. K is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to twelve O atoms. There are a spread of K–O bond distances ranging from 3.02–3.34 Å. There are three inequivalent Mg sites. In the first Mg site, Mg is bonded to six O atoms to form MgO6 octahedra that share a cornercorner with one AlO4 tetrahedra, corners with three SiO4 tetrahedra, and edges with six MgO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Mg–O bond distances ranging from 2.02–2.17 Å. In the second Mg site, Mg is bonded to six O atoms to form MgO6 octahedra that share a cornercorner with one AlO4 tetrahedra, corners with three SiO4 tetrahedra, and edges with six MgO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Mg–O bond distances ranging from 2.01–2.24 Å. In the third Mg site, Mg is bonded to six O atoms to form MgO6 octahedra that share a cornercorner with one AlO4 tetrahedra, corners with three SiO4 tetrahedra, and edges with six MgO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Mg–O bond distances ranging from 2.03–2.20 Å. Al is bonded to four O atoms to form AlO4 tetrahedra that share corners with three MgO6 octahedramore »
