Rodalquilarite is characterised by ferric ion absorption 21 in the range 12300-8800 cm-1. 22 Three water vibrational overtones are observed in xocomecatlite at 7140, 7075 23 and 6935 cm-1 where as in tlapallite bands are shifted to low wavenumbers at 7135, 24 7080 and 6830 cm-1. The complexity of rodalquilarite spectrum increases with more 25 number of overlapping bands in the near-infrared.

  • In-Situ Mno2 Electrodeposition and Its Negative Impact to Rechargeable Zinc Manganese Dioxide Batteries
    In-situ MnO2 Electrodeposition and its Negative Impact to Rechargeable Zinc Manganese Dioxide Batteries by Rui Lin Liang A thesis presented to the University Of Waterloo in fulfilment of the thesis requirements for the degree of Master of Applied Science in Chemical Engineering (Nanotechnology) Waterloo, Ontario, Canada 2018 © Rui Lin Liang 2018 Author’s Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract Achieving high rechargeability with the economically feasible and environmentally friendly Zn-MnO2 batteries has been the goal of many scientists in the past half century. Recently, the stability of the system saw a significant improvement through adaptation of mildly acidic electrolyte with Mn2+ additives that prevent dissolution of the active cathode materials, MnO2. With the new design strategy, breakthroughs were made with the battery life span, as the lab scale batteries operated with minimal degradation for over a thousand cycles of charge and discharge at high C- rate ( >5C ) cycling. However, low C-rate operation of these batteries is still limited to 100 cycles, but has not been a focal point of the research efforts. Furthermore, the electrochemical reactions within the battery system are still under debate and many questions remain to be answered. An interesting phenomenon investigated in this thesis about the mildly acidic Zn- MnO2 battery systems is their tendency to experience capacity growth caused by formation of new active material through Mn2+ electrodeposition.

  • Paleomineralogy of the Hadean Eon: What Minerals Were Present at Life’S Origins?
    Paleomineralogy of the Hadean Eon: What Minerals Were Present at Life’s Origins? Robert M. Hazen—Geophysical Lab 1st ELSI International Symposium Tokyo Institute of Technology March 30, 2013 CONCLUSIONS As many as 90% of the 4700 known mineral species were not present on Earth prior to the origins of life before ~4.0 billion years ago. Origins-of-life models that rely on minerals for catalysis, selection, concentration, protection, or other processes must employ plausible prebiotic mineral species. List of 420 Mineral Species R. M. Hazen (2013) “Paleomineralogy of the Hadean Eon: A Preliminary List” American Journal of Science, in press. What Is Mineral Evolution? A change over time in: • The diversity of mineral species • The relative abundances of minerals • The compositional ranges of minerals • The grain sizes and morphologies of minerals “Ur”-Mineralogy Pre-solar grains contain about a dozen micro- and nano-mineral phases: • Diamond/Lonsdaleite • Graphite (C) • Moissanite (SiC) • Osbornite (TiN) • Nierite (Si3N4) • Rutile (TiO2) • Corundum (Al O ) 2 3 • Spinel (MgAl2O4) • Hibbonite (CaAl12O19) • Forsterite (Mg2SiO4) • Nano-particles of TiC, ZrC, MoC, FeC, Fe-Ni metal within graphite. • GEMS (silicate glass with embedded metal and sulfide). Mineral Evolution: How did we get from a dozen minerals to >4700 on Earth today? What minerals were not present at the origin of life (~4.0 Ga), and why? Mineral Evolution What Drives Mineral Evolution? Deterministic and stochastic processes that occur on any terrestrial body: 1. The progressive separation and concentration of chemical elements from their original uniform distribution. What Drives Mineral Evolution? Deterministic and stochastic processes that occur on any terrestrial body: 1.
