New X-ray powder diffraction data for trilithium octaoxodihydroxopentaborate Li3B5O8(OH)2
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 10 January 2013
Abstract
Precise X-ray powder diffraction patterns for the tetragonal form of Li3B5O8(OH)2 were obtained using a Huber camera; photographs were taken at 22 °C with CuKα1 radiation (λ =1.5406 Å) and with Si as internal standard (a = 5.4308 Å). Refinements of indexed reflections yielded the following parameters: a = 6.8455(4)Å, c = 14.551(1)Å, space group P41212, Z = 4, Dx = 2.31, and Dm = 2.28 g/cm3. The Smith–Snyder figure of merit of F30 = 97(O.OO7,45) compares to that of F30 = 2.6(0.206,57) reported for the existing pattern in the Powder Diffraction File (34-1070).
