Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mandarino and Anderson are the first to bring together all of the known data on this classic mineral locality, Mont Saint-Hilaire, Quebec. This site is one of the most important sources of rare and beautiful minerals in the world. The location is outstanding, both for the rarity of its minerals anf the number of its mineral species. Over 200 mineral species have been identified a Mont Saint-Hilaire, including some found nowhere else or located only in remote areas of the earth. The numerous mineral species found at Mont Saint-Hilaire are described in detail and handsomely illustrated in almost 200 color and black-and-white photomicrographs, sketches, and crystal drawings. The text consists mostly of mineral description and addresses the interests of amateur and professional mineralogists alike. Five appendices present specialized technical data on unit cell parameters, X-ray powder diffraction, occurrence, mineral classification, and chemical analysis for the professional. The book will be a valuable aid to the reader in the identificaton and collection of minerals.

Download or read book Crystallography of Modular Materials written by Giovanni Ferraris and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2004-03-25 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book to provide a comprehensive treatment of theories and applications in the rapidly expanding field of the crystallography of modular materials. Molecules are the natural modules from which molecular crystalline structures are built. Most inorganic structures, however, are infinite arrays of atoms and some kinds of surrogate modules, e.g. co-ordination polyhedra, are usually used to describe them. In recent years the attention has been focused on complex modules as the basis for a systematic description of polytypes and homologous/polysomatic series (modular structures). This representation is applied to the modelling of unknown structures and understanding nanoscale defects and intergrowths in materials. The Order/Disorder (OD) theory is fundamental to developing a systematic theory of polytypism, dealing with those structures based on both ordered and disordered stacking of one or more layers. Twinning at both unit-cell and micro-scale, together with disorder, causes many problems, "demons", for computer-based methods of crystal structure determination. This book develops the theory of twinning with the inclusion of worked examples, converting the "demons" into useful indicators for unravelling crystal structure. In spite of the increasing use of the concepts of modular crystallography for characterising, understanding and tailoring technological crystalline materials, this is the first book to offer a unified treatment of the results, which are spread across many different journals and original papers published over the last twenty years.

Download or read book Layered Mineral Structures and their Application in Advanced Technologies written by M.F. Brigatti and published by The Mineralogical Society of Great Britain and Ireland. This book was released on 2011-11-15 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Layered materials, because of their particular atomic arrangement, are commonly 2characterized by physical and chemical properties of great interest in numerous technological and environmental processes and applications, as better detailed in the body of this volume. Most of these properties play a significant role in Earth sciences, environmental sciences, technology, biotechnology, material sciences and many other scientific areas. The surface properties of layered materials control important interaction processes, such as coagulation, aggregation, sedimentation, filtration, catalysis and ionic transport in porous media. Layered minerals also control many aspects of Earths rheology, i.e. the movement of geological masses, at least as far down as the lower crust. Given this frameset, it should be no surprise that the extremely large field of investigation of these materials can, and in most of the cases must, be approached from several different viewpoints. However, providing full coverage of the immense literature devoted to all the topics above may be impractical, if not impossible. Nevertheless, providing our students, to whom this book is addressed, with fundamental knowledge on different disciplines and providing examples demonstrating the application of these foundations in their daily research, is feasible and certainly useful.
