Materials Data on MgAlSi4O15 by Materials Project

MgAlSi4O13O2 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/m space group. The structure is three-dimensional and consists of eight water molecules and one MgAlSi4O13 framework. In the MgAlSi4O13 framework, Mg is bonded to six O atoms to form distorted MgO6 octahedra that share corners with four SiO4 tetrahedra and an edgeedge with one MgO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Mg–O bond distances ranging from 1.98–2.08 Å. Al is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six O atoms. There are a spread of Al–O bond distances ranging from 1.80–2.18 Å. There are two inequivalent Si sites. In the first Si site, Si is bonded to four O atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one MgO6 octahedra and corners with three SiO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 57°. There are a spread of Si–O bond distances ranging from 1.63–1.65 Å. In the second Si site, Si is bonded to four O atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one MgO6 octahedra and corners with three SiO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 59°. There are a spread of Si–O bond distances ranging from 1.62–1.65 Å. There are eight inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent Si atoms. In the second O site, O is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Mg and one O atom. The O–O bond length is 1.38 Å. In the third O site, O is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two equivalent Si atoms. In the fourth O site, O is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two Si atoms. In the fifth O site, O is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two Si atoms. In the sixth O site, O is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Al and one O atom. The O–O bond length is 1.29 Å. In the seventh O site, O is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Mg, one Al, and one Si atom. In the eighth O site, O is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Mg, one Al, and one Si atom.

Materials Data on MgAlSi4O15 by Materials Project

MgAlSi4O13O2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pmna space group. The structure is three-dimensional and consists of four molecular oxygen molecules and one MgAlSi4O13 framework. In the MgAlSi4O13 framework, Mg is bonded to six O atoms to form MgO6 octahedra that share corners with four SiO4 tetrahedra, an edgeedge with one MgO6 octahedra, and edges with two equivalent AlO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Mg–O bond distances ranging from 2.02–2.07 Å. Al is bonded to six O atoms to form AlO6 octahedra that share corners with four SiO4 tetrahedra and edges with two equivalent MgO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Al–O bond distances ranging from 1.85–1.96 Å. There are two inequivalent Si sites. In the first Si site, Si is bonded to four O atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one MgO6 octahedra, a cornercorner with one AlO6 octahedra, and corners with three SiO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 47–58°. There are a spread of Si–O bond distances ranging from 1.63–1.65 Å. In the second Si site, Si is bonded to four O atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one MgO6 octahedra, a cornercorner with one AlO6 octahedra, and corners with three SiO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 48–57°. There is one shorter (1.61 Å) and three longer (1.64 Å) Si–O bond length. There are eight inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Al atom. In the second O site, O is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two equivalent Mg atoms. In the third O site, O is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two equivalent Si atoms. In the fourth O site, O is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two Si atoms. In the fifth O site, O is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two Si atoms. In the sixth O site, O is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent Si atoms. In the seventh O site, O is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Mg, one Al, and one Si atom. In the eighth O site, O is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Mg, one Al, and one Si atom.
