Hydrothermal synthesis of Mg-rich and Mg-Ni-rich kaolinite
2006
Mg-rich kaolinite and Mg+Ni-rich kaolinite have been synthesized in hydrothermal experiments (200 and 400°C) from poorly crystalline kaolinite and Mg- and Mg+Ni-bearing solutions. Al-rich serpentine and Al-rich chlorite were obtained as sub-products of the reactions. The formation of these phases occurred through a dissolution-precipitation mechanism that led to spherical kaolinite after short reaction times. A morphological evolution towards platy particles and stacks occurred at increasing run times.
