Abstract

Voltaite of the composition [K0.90(NH4)0.10]2(Fe3,1902+Fe1,1243+Mg1,686)(Fe0,9383+Mg0,062)2(Al0,98Fe0,023+)×(SO4)12x18.9H2O is obtained by treating a polymetallic sample with sulfuric acid. The crystal structure of the substance is formed of (Fe3+,Mg)O6 and (Fe2+,Fe3+,Mg)O4(H2O)2 octahedra and a (K+,NH4+)O12x12-vertex polyhedron arranged in a three-dimensional framework due to the bridging function of the SO42- ion. In the framework voids, [(Fe3+,Al)(H2O)6]3+ cations with aqua ligands disordered over several positions are located.
