Abstract
A nanocrystalline powder of the waylandite-structured bismuth hydroaluminophosphate was obtained under hydrothermal conditions at 200 °C, 7 MPa and pH 7, and characterized by X-ray diffractometry, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and energy dispersive microanalysis (EDAX). The simultaneous thermal analysis and high-temperature X-ray diffractometry have shown that the crystal-chemical formula of this compound can be represented as BiAl3(PO4)2O(OH)4·(H2O). This compound retains its structure and crystallite size ( 65 nm) up to about 500 °C. It has been determined that the decomposition of this compound in the 540-800 °C range results in the formation of Bi2O3, Bi2Al4O9 and AlPO4 phases. At temperatures above 800 °C, a complete thermal decomposition of Bi2Al4O9 and the formation of crystalline α-Al2O3 occur in this system, while Bi2O3 keeps evaporating during the isothermal exposure.
