Researchers have generally described feitknechtite as consisting of pyrochroite-like (or cadmium iodide-like) Mn-O octahedral layers, but a detailed crystal structure has not been reported. We used TEM/SAED and powder XRD and Rietveld refinements to derive the unit cell and, for the first time, report a complete structure description for feitknechtite (β-MnOOH). Rietveld refinements were also completed for three natural feitknechtite/hausmannite samples, and time-resolved synchrotron XRD experiments were used to follow the thermal transformation of feitknechtite to hausmannite. Additionally, we identified and report the structure for a second, and perhaps novel, MnOOH polymorph (proposed designation ε-MnOOH), mixed with the synthetic feitknechtite, that is similar to β-MnOOH but with a different layer stacking.","PeriodicalId":7768,"journal":{"name":"American Mineralogist","volume":"178 ","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136103081","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Up to about 1500 K, the results are in excellent 12 agreement and fully reversible. The average adiabatic elastic stiffness coefficients at room temperature 13 in GPa are c 11 = 426.8(6), c 12 = 68.1(4), c 13 = 152.0(4), c 33 = 490.8(9), c 44 = 113.1(2) and c 66 = 49.0(1). 14 Polycrystalline averaging for the aggregate bulk and shear modulus (Voigt-Reuss-Hill average) yield K 15 = 229.3(4) GPa and G = 109.3(1) GPa. From 293 K to 1573 K, the elastic stiffnesses soften almost 16 linearly with the temperature coefficients in MPa/K: d c 11 /d T = -45.36(7), d c 12 /d T = -2.03(7), d c 13 /d T = - 17 9.59(7), d c 33 /d T = -42.85(12), d c 44 /d T = -9.60(3), and d c 66 /d T = -2.19(1). Below room temperature, the 18 behavior of the c ij is non-linear, with decreasing absolute values of the temperature coefficients. Above 19 about 1500 K, a temperature-and time-dependent irreversible elastic stiffening accompanied by an 20 increasing ultrasound dissipation was observed in all samples. These anomalies are interpreted to be the 21 consequence of increased dislocation densities.","PeriodicalId":7768,"journal":{"name":"American Mineralogist","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48501329","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
