Abstract

The thermal stability of solium aluminium silicates and their reactivity to alkali carbonates were investigated in view of their application as CO2 gas sensors. A nepheline phase was very stable, since the peak position of the X-ray diffraction pattern was hardly influenced by either heat treatment or humidification up to 800°C. A distorted carnegieite phase (like-carnegieite) transformed into the nepheline phase at 500°C under a humid condition, while under a dry condition, it was stable up to 800°C but transformed into the nepheline phase at 900°C. For mixtures with alkali carbonates, the nepheline phase was most stable even under the humid condition at temperatures below 500°C. When the mixtures were heated at 600°C, the nepheline phase reverted to the like-carnegieite phase and alkali silicates, such as Na2SiO3, Li2SiO3 and Li4SiO4, formed as by-products. For Na2O-Al2O3-4SiO2 sintering mixtures with Li2CO3, the like-carnegieite phase transformed into the nepheline phase at 500°C. The nepheline phase was stable up to 1000°C even under the humid condition and Li2SiO3 formed as a by-product.<br>
