The role of hydrogen bonding in the thermal expansion and dehydration of brushite,di-calcium phosphate dihydrate

The unit-cell and atomic parameters of perdeuterated brushite have been extracted from Rietveld analysis of neutron powder diffraction data within the temperature range 4.2 to 470 K. The thermal expansion of brushite is anisotropic, with the largest expansion along the b axis due principally to the effect of the O(1)···D(4) and O(3)···D(2) hydrogen bonds. Expansion along the c axis, influenced by the Ow1···D(5) interwater hydrogen bond, is also large. The high temperature limits for the expansion coefficients for the unit-cell edges a, b and c are 9.7(5) × 10^–6, 3.82(9) × 10^–5 and 5.54(5) × 10^–5 K^–1, respectively, and for the cell volume it is 9.7(1) × 10^–5 K^–1. The angle displays oscillatory variation, and empirical data analysis results in = 1.28(3) × 10^–6sin(0.0105 T) K^–1, within this temperature range. The evolution of the thermal expansion tensor of brushite has been calculated between 50 T 400 K. At 300 K the magnitudes of the principal axes are ₁₁ = 50(6) × 10^{–6 K–1}, ₂₂ = 26.7(7) × 10^–6 K^–1 and ₃₃ = 7.0(5) × 10^–6 K^–1. The intermediate axis, ₂₂, is parallel to b, and using IRE convention for the tensor orthonormal basis, the axes ₁₁ and ₃₃ have directions equal to (–0.228, 0, –0.974) and (–0.974, 0, 0.228) respectively. Under the conditions of these experiments, the onset of dehydration occurred at temperatures above 400 K. Bond valence analysis combined with assessments of the thermal evolution of the bonding within brushite suggests that dehydration is precipitated through instabilities in the chemical environment of the second water molecule.     

Influence of fluids on deep crustal Jabalpur earthquake of 21, May 1997: Geophysical evidences

We present the geophysical evidences on the role of fluids for generation of the lower crustal Jabalpur earthquake (21 May 1997, mb 6.0, Mw 5.8), in the mid-continental fracture zone of the Indian Peninsular Shield. With a focal depth of 35 km, it indicates a high angled (< 62^∘ enclosed with maximum principal stress direction) reverse fault with small component of left-lateral strike slip in the lower crust. The Son-Narmada-Tapti (SONATA) magalineament, during the past two centuries, has experienced about 25 moderate to strong earthquakes; two of which namely the Son Valley (1927, M 6.5) and Jabalpur (21 May 1997) were disastrous. Historical earthquakes and recent earthquake swarms indicate a moderate to high seismicity in SONATA belt that is due to high strain accumulation, flexuring of the crust and neotectonic movements of the faults in the rift zones. By analyzing geophysical parameters such as Zero-Free air-based (ZFb) gravity anomalies (∼ −10 to –30 mGals), heat flow values (45–47 mWm⁻²), magneto-telluric values (1- Ohm m), strain rate (1.5 × 10⁻⁸) and failure stress conditions, we identify plausible causative factors for the occurrence of lower crustal earthquake in this region Fluids, due to dehydration of serpentinite in the lower crust, are suggested to be present in the earthquake source zone. The estimated pore-fluid factor for the Jabalpur earthquake (λ _v ) is 0.95. The diffusion of pore-pressure relaxation, represented as pressure perturbation generated by coseismic stress change was seen in the form of swarm activity two years prior to the Jabalpur earthquake. We suggest the existence of a deep pre-fractured zone with low shear stress (τ = 15–18 MPa) that indicates the presence of fluid filled fractured mafic material in the felsic crust, in critical state of unstable failure condition, and also fluid driven migration of swarm activity before the Jabalpur earthquake.     

A fluid-pressure feedback model of dehydration reactions: experiments, modelling, and application to subduction zones

Dehydration and melting reactions generate large volumes of fluid in the crust and upper mantle, and play an important role in subduction zone seismicity. The fluid pathway must evolve from isolated pockets in low porosity, low permeability rock, coalescing to interconnected permeable pathways to the surface. When fluid pressures generated from a dehydration or melting reaction are sufficient to induce hydrofracture, then hydrofracture significantly influences the porosity–permeability structure within the dehydrating/melting horizon. If a low fluid-pressure boundary is introduced to the dehydrating rock, then fluid will be driven from the rock along the evolved permeable network toward that boundary. The resulting pressure reduction can then accelerate the dehydration reaction and further drive the flow. The sudden introduction of a low fluid-pressure boundary may occur by the co-seismic (dilatant) rupturing of a pressure seal that connects different fluid pressure states. This mechanism is invoked to explain the observed post-seismic evolution of wave velocities (V_p/V_s) following the 1995 Antofagasta, Chile earthquake. We show experimental results and introduce a conceptual and numerical model that reflects this scenario. The model couples the mechanical and thermodynamic effects of fluid pressure with devolitization kinetics, and is quantitatively consistent with experimental studies of the dehydration of gypsum and serpentine. The experimental results show that dehydration is controlled by access to a free (drained) boundary. The model provides a mechanistic explanation for the experimental observations and has applications in understanding the role of transient transport networks on the large-scale behavior of dehydrating and melting systems.     

Effects of reaction kinetics and fluid drainage on the development of pore pressure excess in a dehydrating system

Fluid is released by dehydration reactions during prograde metamorphism. If the Claperyron slope for the dehydrating reaction is positive, then there is a net decrease in the total solid volume, which implies an irreversible increase in porosity. If the dilation of the pore space is insufficient to provide storage for all the released fluid, then pore pressure excess is generated, and if it becomes sufficiently high, it may lead to brittle fracturing. The time scale for pressure generation and the pore pressure excess can be maintained over long duration hinge on the interplay of reaction kinetics and fluid drainage. Motivated by experimental and microstructural observations, a hydrological model is developed that incorporates dehydration kinetics and its pressure dependence. Analytic solutions were derived for the undrained development of pore pressure. Whether lithostatic pressure may be exceeded hinges on magnitude of the overstep in temperature and corresponding equilibrium pressure. The time scale for development of pore pressure depends on the trade-off between poroelasticity and the pressure sensitivity of reaction rate. A finite difference model was also developed to simulate the progressive development of pore pressure excess, dehydration and porosity development. The model captures the experimental observation in gypsum of a reaction front that progressively propagates from the drained end toward the undrained end of a laboratory sample. It is also in reasonable agreement with experimental data on fluid drainage and porosity production.     

Dehydration process and structural development of cordierite ceramic precursors derived from FTIR spectroscopic investigations

 Cordierite precursors were prepared by a sol-gel process using tetraethoxysilane, aluminum sec.-butoxide, and Mg metal flakes as starting materials. The precursors were treated by 15-h heating steps in intervals of 100 °C from 200 to 900 °C; they show a continuous decrease in the analytical water content with increasing preheating temperatures. The presence of H₂O and (Si,Al)–OH combination modes in the FTIR powder spectra prove the presence of both H₂O molecules and OH groups as structural components, with invariable OH concentrations up to preheating temperatures of 500 °C. The deconvolution of the absorptions in the (H₂O,OH)-stretching vibrational region into four bands centred at 3584, 3415, 3216 and 3047 cm⁻¹ reveals non-bridging and bridging H₂O molecules and OH groups. The precursor powders remain X-ray amorphous up to preheating temperatures of 800 °C. Above this temperature the precursors crystallize to μ-cordierite; at 1000 °C the structure transforms to α-cordierite. Close similarities exist in the pattern of the 1400–400 cm⁻¹ lattice vibrational region for precursors preheated up to 600 °C. Striking differences are evident at preheating temperatures of 800 °C, where the spectrum of the precursor powder corresponds to that of conventional cordierite glass. Bands centred in the “as-prepared” precursor at 1137 and 1020 cm⁻¹ are assigned to Si–O-stretching vibrations. A weak absorption at 872 cm⁻¹ is assigned to stretching modes of AlO₄ tetrahedral units and the same assignment holds for a band at 783 cm⁻¹ which appears in precursors preheated at 600 °C. With increasing temperatures, these bands show a significant shift to higher wavenumbers and the Al–O stretching modes display a strong increase in their intensities. (Si,Al)–O–(Si,Al)-bending modes occur at 710 cm⁻¹ and the band at 572 cm⁻¹ is assigned to stretching vibrations of AlO₆ octahedral units. A strong band around 440 cm⁻¹ is essentially attributed to Mg–O-stretching vibrations. The strongly increasing intensity of the 872 and 783 cm⁻¹ bands demonstrates a clear preference of Al for a fourfold-coordinated structural position in the precursors preheated at high temperatures. The observed band shift is a strong indication for increasing tetrahedral network condensation along with changes in the Si–O and Al–O distances to tetrahedra dimensions similar to those occurring in crystalline cordierite. These structural changes are correlated to the dehydration process starting essentially above 500 °C, clearly demonstrating the inhibiting role of H₂O molecules and especially of OH groups.

Four different varieties of charnockitic rocks,with different modes of formation,from the Mesoproterozoic Natal belt are described and new C isotope data presented.Excellent coastal exposures in a number of quarries and river sections make this part of the Natal belt a good location for observing charnockitic field relationships.Whereas there has been much debate on genesis of charnockites and the use of the term charnockite.it is generally recognized that the stabilization of orthopyroxene relative to biotite in granitoid rocks is a function of low aH₂O（±high CO₂）,high temperature,and composition （especially Fe/（Fe +Mg））.From the Natal belt exposures,it is evident that syn-emplacement.magmatic crystallization of chamockite can arise from mantle-derived differentiated melts that are inherently hot and dry（as in the Oribi Gorge granites and Munster enderbite）,as well as from wet granitic melts that have been affected through interaction with dry country rock to produce localized charnockitic marginal facies in plutons（as in the Portobello Granite）.Two varieties of post-emplacement sub-solidus chamockites are also evident.These include charnockitic aureoles developed in leucocratic,biotite.garnet granite adjacent to cross-cutting enderbitic veins that are attributed to metamorphic-metasomatic processes（as in the Nicholson’s Point granite,a part of the Margate Granite Suite）,as well as nebulous,patchy charnockitic veins in the Margate Granite that are attributed to anatectic metamorphic processes under low-aH_O fluid conditions during a metamorphic event.These varieties of chamockite show that the required physical conditions of their genesis can be achieved through a number of geological processes,providing some important implications for the classification of charnockites,and for the interpretation of charnockite genesis in areas where poor exposure obscures field relationships.     

Heating-induced phase transformation in zeolite brewsterite: new 4- and 5-coordinated (Si,Al) sites

The dehydration-rehydration processes and phase transformations of brewsterite (space group P2₁/m, ideal formula (Sr,Ba)Al₂Si₆O₁₆·5H₂O) were studied by single crystal X-ray diffraction on two samples heated in an evacuated capillary for 24 h at 280°C and 330°C, respectively, and then cooled to room temperature. After the data collection, the capillary of the crystal heated at 280°C was broken, the sample was kept at room conditions for one month, and diffraction data were recollected. Brewsterite heated in vacuum at 280°C shows a strong decrease of the unit cell volume (about 10%) and the statistical breaking of the T1-O7-T2 bridge of the 4-ring of the 4²5⁴ PBU. T1 cation, in 31% of cases, migrates to a new tetrahedral site, which shares three vertices with the previously occupied one; the fourth vertex is on the mirror plane, and joins two adjacent layers. T2 cation, in 20% of cases, migrates to a new site, which is characterized by a 5-fold coordination. This coordination polyhedron shares three vertices with the previously occupied tetrahedron; the fourth vertex is on the mirror plane, and joins two adjacent layers; the fifth one is unshared. The formation of these new T-O-T bridges prevents the re-expansion and rehydration of the heated brewsterite; as a consequence, the crystal brought back to room conditions does not show any noticeable structural difference with respect to that heated at 280°C. The exchangeable cations, which occupy only one extraframework site in the untreated brewsterite, spread over several sites. The sample heated at 330°C shows a further decrease in the unit cell volume of about 2% with respect to the sample heated at 280°C, and an increase in the migration percentage of T1 and T2 cations to the new sites.
