Shock veins up to 1.1 mm thick were found within non-porous lithic clasts from suevite breccia of the Nördlinger Ries impact structure. These veins were studied by optical microscopy in transmitted and reflected light and by scanning electron microscopy. In shocked amphibolites, two types of Ca-rich majorite occur within and adjacent to the veins. The first type crystallized from shock-induced melts within the veins. Si contents of these majorites suggest dynamic pressure of ~15–17 GPa, implying minimum temperatures in the range of ~2,150–2,230°C. The second type of majorite was formed adjacent to the shock veins within pargasitic hornblende. This majorite contains significant amounts of H2O (0.7–0.9 wt%). Based on the textural setting, the shrinkage cracks and the chemical compositions of both phases, a solid-state mechanism is deduced for the hornblende to majorite phase transition. Both genetic types of Ca-rich majorite are described for the first time from a terrestrial impact crater. Along with stishovite, majorite constitutes the second silicate mineral displaying sixfold coordination of Si at Ries. Using micro-Raman spectroscopy, jadeite + coesite and jadeite + grossular were identified within local melt glasses of alkali feldspar and plagioclase composition, respectively. Stishovite aggregates, produced by solid-state reaction, along with shock-induced high-pressure melt glasses of almandine composition were also detected in shock veins of a garnet-cordierite-sillimanite restite. The quenched, homogeneous almandine glasses point to melting temperatures of more than ~2,500°C for the veins. Our findings demonstrate that terrestrial shock veins can give valuable information on shock-induced mineral transformations and transient high pressures of host rocks during a natural impact event.  相似文献

The structures of sodium silicate and aluminosilicate glasses quenched from melts at high pressure (6-10 GPa) with varying degrees of polymerization (fractions of nonbridging oxygen) were explored using solid-state NMR [17O and 27Al triple-quantum magic-angle spinning (3QMAS) NMR]. The bond connectivity in melts among four and highly coordinated network polyhedra, such as [4]Al, [5,6]Al, [4]Si, and [5,6]Si, at high pressure is shown to be significantly different from that at ambient pressure. In particular, in the silicate and aluminosilicate melts, the proportion of nonbridging oxygen (NBO) generally decreases with increasing pressure, leading to the formation of new oxygen clusters that include 5- and 6-coordinated Si and Al in addition to 4-coordinated Al and Si, such as [4]Si-O-[5,6]Si, [4]Si-O-[5,6]Al and Na-O-[5,6]Si. While the fractions of [5,6]Al increase with pressure, the magnitude of this increase diminishes with increasing degrees of ambient-pressure polymerization under isobaric conditions. Incorporating the above structural information into models of melt properties reproduces the anomalous pressure-dependence of O2− diffusivity and viscosity often observed in silicate melts.  相似文献

Compression of MgSiO3 glass in a 6/8 multianvil apparatus to 10.0 ± 0.5 GPa results in demonstrable changes in density and silicon coordination. Under high-pressure, samples were heated over a range of temperatures from 300 to 773 K, quenched to room temperature and decompressed at rates of 10.4 and 0.08 GPa/min. Recovered glasses have bulk densities that are 2.6-11.0% higher than the non-compressed glass. 29Si MAS NMR spectra of compressed glasses show narrowing of the [4]Si peak resulting from a reduction in the spread of the Si-O-Si bond angle distribution. After heating and rapid decompression, 29Si MAS NMR spectra of recovered glasses exhibit peaks assignable to [4]Si, [5]Si, and [6]Si with relative fractions of 0.945, 0.045, and 0.008, respectively. These changes in Si coordination and in Si-O-Si bond angle distribution with pressure only represent part of the structural changes associated with permanent densification of heated and unheated samples. The abundance of [6]Si is found to be insensitive to decompression rate, while [5]Si reverts to [4]Si on slow decompression at room temperature. These observations demonstrate that high-coordinated silicon species in MgSiO3 glass are formed on compression below glass transition temperatures and that pressure-induced structural changes can be preserved with rapid decompression. The ease with which [5]Si reverts to [4]Si during decompression suggests that the conversion of [4]Si → [5]Si principally involves short-range atomic displacement. The reversible and irreversible features of densification of MgSiO3 glass, provide insights into the fundamental structural and rheological properties of refractory silicate melts similar to those found in the Earth’s mantle.  相似文献

The radiation resistance of the phase (Gd,Cm)2Sn2O7 with a pyrochlore-type structure containing 3.0 wt % 244Cm was studied. It was established that amorphization occurs at a dose of 1019 α-decay/g (1.52 displacements per atom), which is 2–5 times higher than that needed for amorphization of titanate and titanate–zirconate pyrochlore phases with a similar structure. The heating of the amorphous ceramics restores the structure of the pyrochlore. The restoration process begins in the temperature interval of 600–700°C. This allows us to estimate the critical amorphization temperature as 650°C. On the 14th day, the rate of Cm leaching from the initial sample in water at 90°C is 10–1; Gd, 10–2; and Sn, 10–3 g/(m2 day). After amorphization the leaching rate increases by an order of magnitude (Cm) and two orders of magnitude (Gd), but it does not change for Sn. Compared to the zirconate and titanate–zirconate phases, stannate pyrochlore is markedly less resistant in water and cannot be regarded as a matrix for the immobilization of REE-actinide fraction wastes.  相似文献

We present a Raman spectroscopic study of the structural modifications of several olivines at high pressures and ambient temperature. At high pressures, the following modifications in the Raman spectra are observed: 1)?in Mn2GeO4, between 6.7 and 8.6?GPa the appearance of weak bands at 560 and 860?cm?1; between 10.6 and 23?GPa, the progressive replacement of the olivine spectrum by the spectrum of a crystalline high pressure phase; upon decompression, the inverse sequence of transformations is observed with some hysteresis in the transformation pressures; this sequence may be interpreted as the progressive transformation of the olivine to a spinelloid where Ge tetrahedra are polymerized, and then to a partially inverse spinel; 2)?in Ca2SiO4, the olivine transforms to larnite between 1.9 and 2.1?GPa; larnite is observed up to the maximum pressure of 24?GPa and it can partially back-transform to olivine during decompression; 3)?in Ca2GeO4, the olivine transforms to a new structure between 6.8 and 8?GPa; the vibrational frequencies of the new phase suggest that the phase transition involves an increase of the Ca coordination number and that Ge tetrahedra are isolated; this high pressure phase is observed up to the maximum pressure of 11?GPa; during decompression, it transforms to a disordered phase below 5?GPa; 4)?in CaMgGeO4, no significant modification of the olivine spectrum is observed up to 15?GPa; between 16 and 26?GPa, broadening of some peaks and the appearance of a weak broad feature at 700–900?cm?1 suggests a progressive amorphization of the structure; near 27?GPa, amorphization is complete and an amorphous phase is quenched down to ambient pressure; this unique behaviour is interpreted as the result of the incompatibilities in the high pressure behaviour of the Ca and Mg sublattices in the olivine structure.  相似文献

Information about the state of sulfur in silicate melts and glasses is important in both earth sciences and materials sciences. Because of its variety of valence states from S2− (sulfide) to S6+ (sulfate), the speciation of sulfur dissolved in silicate melts and glasses is expected to be highly dependent on the oxygen fugacity. To place new constraint on this issue, we have synthesized sulfur-bearing sodium silicate glasses (quenched melts) from starting materials containing sulfur of different valence states (Na2SO4, Na2SO3, Na2S2O3 and native S) using an internally heated gas pressure vessel, and have applied electron-induced SKα X-ray fluorescence, micro-Raman and NMR spectroscopic techniques to probe their structure. The wavelength shift of SKα X-rays revealed that the differences in the valence state of sulfur in the starting compounds are largely retained in the synthesized sulfur-bearing glasses, with a small reduction for more oxidized samples. The 29Si MAS NMR spectra of all the glasses contain no peaks attributable to the SiO4-nSn (with n > 0) linkages. The Raman spectra are consistent with the coexistence of sodium sulfate (Na2SO4) species and one or more types of more reduced sulfur species containing S-S linkages in all the sulfur-bearing silicate glasses, with the former dominant in glasses produced from Na2SO4-doped starting materials, and the latter more abundant in more reduced glasses. The 29Si MAS NMR and Raman spectra also revealed changes in the silicate network structure of the sulfur-bearing glasses, which can be interpreted in terms of changes in the chemical composition and sulfur speciation.  相似文献

The analysis of the extended energy-loss fine structure (EXELFS) of the Si K-edge for sixfold-coordinated Si in synthetic stishovite and fourfold-coordinated Si in natural α-quartz is reported by using electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS) in combination with transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The stishovite Si K-edge EXELFS spectra were measured as a time-dependent series to document irradiation-induced amorphization. The amorphization was also investigated through the change in Si K- and O K-edge energy-loss near edge structure (ELNES). For α-quartz, in contrast to stishovite, electron irradiation-induced vitrification, verified by selected area electron diffraction (SAED), produced no detectable changes of the EXELFS. The Si K-edge EXELFS were analysed with the classical extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) treatment and compared to ab initio curve-waved multiple-scattering (MS) calculations of EXAFS spectra for stishovite and α-quartz. Highly accurate information on the local atomic environment of the silicon atoms during the irradiation-induced amorphization of stishovite is obtained from the EXELFS structure parameters (Si−O bond distances, coordination numbers and Debye-Waller factors). The mean Si−O bond distance R and mean Si coordination number N changes from R=0.1775 nm and N=6 for stishovite through a disordered intermediate state (R≈0.172 nm and N≈5) to R≈0.167 nm and N≈4.5 for a nearly amorphous state similar to α-quartz (R=0.1609 nm and N=4). During the amorphization process, the Debye-Waller factor (DWF) passes through a maximum value of as it changes from for sixfold to for fourfold coordination of Si. This increase in Debye-Waller factor indicates an increase in mean-square relative displacement (MSRD) between the central silicon atom and its oxygen neighbours that is consistent with the presence of an intermediate structural state with fivefold coordination of Si. The distribution of coordination states can be estimated by modelling the amorphization as a decay process. Using the EXELFS data for amorphization, a new method is developed to derive the relative amounts of Si coordinations in high-pressure minerals with mixed coordination. For the radiation-induced amorphization process of stishovite the formation of a transitory structure with Si largely in fivefold coordination is deduced.

 The speciation of water dissolved in glasses along the join NaAlSi3O8-KAlSi3O8 has been investigated using infrared spectroscopy. Hydrous melts have been hydrothermally synthesized by chemical equilibration of cylinders of bubble-free anhydrous start glasses with water at 1040° C and 2 kbar. These melts have been isobarically and rapidly (200° C/s) “drop”-quenched to room temperature and then subsequently depressurized. The speciation of water in the quenched glasses reflects the state of water speciation at a temperature (the so-called fictive temperature) where the quenched-in structure of the glasses closely corresponds to the melt structure at equilibrium. This fictive temperature is detectable as the macroscopically measureable glass transition temperature of these melt compositions. A separate set of experiments using vesicular samples of the same chemistry has precisely defined the glass transition temperature of these melts (±5° C) on the basis of homogenization temperatures for water-filled fluid inclusions (Romano et al. 1994). The spectroscopic data on the speciation of water in these quenched glasses has been quantified using experimentally determined absorptivities for OH and H2O for each individual melt composition. The knowledge of glass transition temperatures, together with quantitative speciation data permits an analysis of the temperature dependence of the water speciation over the 113° C range of fictive temperatures obtained for these water-saturated melts. The variation of water speciation, cast as the equilibrium constant K where K = [H2O] [O m ]/[OH]2 is plotted versus the fictive temperature of the melt to obtain the temperature dependence of speciation. Such a plot describes a single linear trend of the logarithm of the equilibrium constant versus reciprocal temperature, implying that the exchange of K for Na has little influence on melt speciation of water. The enthalpy derived from temperature dependence is 36.5(±5) kJ/mol. The results indicate a large variation in speciation with temperature and an insensitivity of the speciation to the K–Na exchange.

Mossbauer spectroscopy has been used to determine the redox equilibria of iron and structure of quenched melts on the composition join Na2Si2O5-Fe2O3 to 40 kbar pressure at 1400° C. The Fe3+/ΣFe decreases with increasing pressure. The ferric iron appears to undergo a gradual coordination transformation from a network-former at 1 bar to a network-modifier at higher (≧10 kbar) pressure. Ferrous iron is a network-modifier in all quenched melts. Reduction of Fe3+ to Fe2+ and coordination transformation of remaining Fe3+ result in depolymerization of the silicate melts (the ratio of nonbridging oxygens per tetrahedral cations, NBO/T, increases). It is suggested that this pressure-induced depolymerization of iron-bearing silicate liquids results in increasing NBO/T of the liquidus minerals. Furthermore, this depolymerization results in a more rapid pressure-induced decrease in viscosity and activation energy of viscous flow of iron-bearing silicate melts than would be expected for iron-free silicate melts with similar NBO/T.  相似文献

Dissolution of water in magmas significantly affects phase relations and physical properties. To shed new light on the this issue, we have applied 1H and 29Si nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopic techniques to hydrous silicate glasses (quenched melts) in the CaO-MgO-SiO2 (CMS), Na2O-SiO2, Na2O-CaO-SiO2 and Li2O-SiO2 systems. We have also carried out ab initio molecular orbital calculations on representative clusters to gain insight into the experimental results.The most prominent result is the identification of a major peak at ∼1.1 to 1.7 ppm in the 1H MAS NMR spectra for all the hydrous CMS glasses. On the basis of experimental NMR data for crystalline phases and ab initio calculation results, this peak can be unambiguously attributed to (Ca,Mg)OH groups. Such OH groups, like free oxygens, are only linked to metal cations, but not part of the silicate network, and are thus referred to as free hydroxyls in the paper. This represents the first direct evidence for a substantial proportion (∼13∼29%) of the dissolved water as free hydroxyl groups in quenched hydrous silicate melts. We have found that free hydroxyls are favored by (1) more depolymerized melts and (2) network-modifying cations of higher field strength (Z/R2: Z: charge, R: cation-oxygen bond length) in the order Mg > Ca > Na. Their formation is expected to cause an increase in the melt polymerization, contrary to the effect of SiOH formation. The 29Si MAS NMR results are consistent with such an interpretation. This water dissolution mechanism could be particularly important for ultramafic and mafic magmas.The 1H MAS NMR spectra for glasses of all the studied compositions contain peaks in the 4 to 17 ppm region, attributable to SiOH of a range of strength of hydrogen bonding and molecular H2O. The relative population of SiOH with strong hydrogen bonding grows with decreasing field strength of the network-modifying cations. Ab initio calculations confirmed that this trend largely reflects hydrogen bonding with nonbridging oxygens.  相似文献

It is shown that under ambient atmospheric conditions heating causes the crystal structure of βFeOOH (synthetic akaganeite) to degenerate gradually into a quasi amorphous intermediate state, before the final phase transformation to αFe2O3 (hematite) takes place. Using X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and Mössbauer Spectroscopy, this amorphization process is monitored and the structural, morphological and magnetic features of the intermediate phase as a function of the isochronal heating temperature are discussed: the crystallites develop macropores on their surface, the adsorption capacity raises up to 10 percent of the initial mass, a third type of Fe3+ coordination, having an extremely large quadrupole splitting, is created and the Néel temperature, after an initial decrease, exhibits a sharp increase at higher heating temperatures. The magnetic behaviour of this intermediate phase at low temperatures and in high external fields suggests this antiferromagnet undergoes magnetic phase transitions (metamagnetism and spin flop) at unusually low critical fields.  相似文献

Solubility mechanisms of water in depolymerized silicate melts quenched from high temperature (1000°-1300°C) at high pressure (0.8-2.0 GPa) have been examined in peralkaline melts in the system Na2O-SiO2-H2O with Raman and NMR spectroscopy. The Na/Si ratio of the melts ranged from 0.25 to 1. Water contents were varied from ∼3 mol% and ∼40 mol% (based on O = 1). Solution of water results in melt depolymerization where the rate of depolymerization with water content, ∂(NBO/Si)/∂XH2O, decreases with increasing total water content. At low water contents, the influence of H2O on the melt structure resembles that of adding alkali oxide. In water-rich melts, alkali oxides are more efficient melt depolymerizers than water. In highly polymerized melts, Si-OH bonds are formed by water reacting with bridging oxygen in Q4-species to form Q3 and Q2 species. In less polymerized melts, Si-OH bonds are formed when bridging oxygen in Q3-species react with water to form Q2-species. In addition, the presence of Na-OH complexes is inferred. Their importance appears to increase with Na/Si. This apparent increase in importance of Na-OH complexes with increasing Na/Si (which causes increasing degree of depolymerization of the anhydrous silicate melt) suggests that water is a less efficient depolymerizer of silicate melts, the more depolymerized the melt. This conclusion is consistent with recently published 1H and 29Si MAS NMR and 1H-29Si cross polarization NMR data.  相似文献

Structural interaction between dissolved fluorine and silicate glass (25°C) and melt (to 1400°C) has been examined with 19F and 29Si MAS NMR and with Raman spectroscopy in the system Na2O-Al2O3-SiO2 as a function of Al2O3 content. Approximately 3 mol.% F calculated as NaF dissolved in these glasses and melts. From 19F NMR spectroscopy, four different fluoride complexes were identified. These are (1) Na-F complexes (NF), (2) Na-Al-F complexes with Al in 4-fold coordination (NAF), (3) Na-Al-F complexes with Al in 6-fold coordination with F (CF), and (4) Al-F complexes with Al in 6-fold, and possibly also 4-fold coordination (TF). The latter three types of complexes may be linked to the aluminosilicate network via Al-O-Si bridges.The abundance of sodium fluoride complexes (NF) decreases with increasing Al/(Al + Si) of the glasses and melts. The NF complexes were not detected in meta-aluminosilicate glasses and melts. The NAF, CF, and TF complexes coexist in peralkaline and meta-aluminosilicate glasses and melts.From 29Si-NMR spectra of glasses and Raman spectra of glasses and melts, the silicate structure of Al-free and Al-poor compositions becomes polymerized by dissolution of F because NF complexes scavenge network-modifying Na from the silicate. Solution of F in Al-rich peralkaline and meta-aluminous glasses and melts results in Al-F bonding and aluminosilicate depolymerization.Temperature (above that of the glass transition) affects the Qn-speciation reaction in the melts, 2Q3 ⇔ Q4 + Q2, in a manner similar to other alkali silicate and alkali aluminosilicate melts. Dissolved F at the concentration level used in this study does not affect the temperature-dependence of this speciation reaction.  相似文献

Recent development and advances in solid state NMR, together with theoretical analyses using quantum-chemical calculations and statistical mechanical modeling, have allowed us to estimate and quantify the detailed distributions of cations and anions in model silicate glasses and melts with varying pressure, temperature and composition. How these microscopic, atomic-scale distributions in the melts from NMR and simulations affect the thermodynamic and transport properties relevant to magmatic processes has been extensively explored recently. Here, based on these previous studies, we present a classification scheme to quantify the various aspects of disorder in covalent oxide glasses and melts on scales of less than 1 nm. The scheme includes contributions from both chemical and topological disorder. Chemical disorder can further be divided into [1] connectivity, which quantifies the extent of mixing among framework units (often parameterized by the degree of Al avoidance or phase separation) and the extent of polymerization (mixing between framework and nonframework cations), and [2] nonframework disorder, which denotes the distribution of network-modifying or charge-balancing cations. Topological disorder includes the distribution of bond lengths and angles. We use this framework of disorder quantification to summarize recent progress on the structures of silicate melts and glasses, mainly obtained from 2D triple quantum magic-angle spinning (3QMAS) NMR, as functions of temperature, pressure, and composition.Most glasses and melts studied show a tendency for chemical ordering in connectivity, nonframework disorder and topological disorder at ambient and high pressure. The chemical ordering in framework disorder, a manifestation of energetics in the melts and glasses, contributes to the total negative deviation of activity of oxides from ideal solution in silicate melts (reduced activity). While no definite evidence of clustering among nonframework cations was found, these cations tend to form dissimilar pairs upon mixing with other types of network modifying cations. Topological disorder in silicate glasses and melts tends to increase with increasing pressure, as suggested by increasing bond angle and length distribution, while the chemical order seems to be maintained with pressure. We calculate key macroscopic properties, including the activity coefficient of silica and viscosity, based on the quantitative estimation of the extent of disorder from solid-state NMR, in particular 17O 3QMAS NMR. Structural ordering in melts may strongly affect the composition of partial melts in equilibrium with solids, increasing the silica composition of partial melts as a result. With increasing chemical order, the configurational entropy decreases, which can be correlated to an increase in viscosity of melts.  相似文献

Phase transformations in a natural sample of hedenbergite ((Ca0.93Fe0.61Mn0.34Mg0.08Na0.01Zn0.02Al0.003)Si2O6) have been studied by X-ray diffraction up to 40 GPa at ∼ 1200°C in a diamond anvil cell interfaced with a laser heating system. The starting hedenbergite phase decomposed into a garnet plus γ-spinel and stishovite at ∼ 14 GPa; then into garnet plus stishovite and wüstite at ∼ 18 GPa; and finally into perovskite plus stishovite and wüstite at pressures higher than ∼ 24 GPa. On decompression to 0.1 MPa, all the high pressure phases are retained except for the cubic perovskite, which reverts back into the ɛ-CaSiO3 phase, in accordance with previous reports. Energy-dispersive SEM analyses show that the garnet is present as a calcium-rich ABO 3-type phase. As no garnet phase has been previously observed either in pure CaSiO3 or in pure CaMgSi2O6, it appears that the observed calcium-rich garnet phase has been stabilized by the presence of other cations such as the Na+, Zn2+, Mn2+, Fe2+, Mn3+, Fe3+ and Al3+.  相似文献

In order to constrain the high-pressure behavior of kyanite, multi-anvil experiments have been carried out from 15 to 25 GPa, and 1,350 to 2,500°C. Both forward and reversal approaches to phase equilibria were adopted in these experiments. We find that kyanite breaks down to stishovite + corundum at pressures above ∼15 GPa, and stishovite + corundum should be the stable phase assemblage at the pressure–temperature conditions of the transition zone and the uppermost part of the lower mantle of the Earth, in agreement with previous multi-anvil experimental studies and ab initio calculation results, but in disagreement with some of the diamond-anvil cell experimental studies in the literature. The Al2O3 solubility in nominally dry stishovite has been tightly bracketed by forward and reversal experiments; it is slightly but consistently reduced by pressure increase. Its response to temperature increase, however, is more complicated: increases at low temperatures, maximizes at around 2,000°C, and perhaps decreases at higher temperatures. Consequently, the Al2O3 solubility in dry stishovite at conditions of high temperature–high pressure is very limited.  相似文献

The speciation of water in silicate melts   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  
Previous models of water solubility in silicate melts generally assume essentially complete reaction of water molecules to hydroxyl groups. In this paper a new model is proposed that is based on the hypothesis that the observed concentrations of molecular water and hydroxyl groups in hydrous silicate glasses reflect those of the melts from which they were quenched. The new model relates the proportions of molecular water and hydroxyl groups in melts via the following reaction describing the homogeneous equilibrium between melt species: H2Omolecular (melt) + oxygen (melt) = 2OH (melt). An equilibrium constant has been formulated for this reaction and species are assumed to mix ideally. Given an equilibrium constant for this reaction of 0.1–0.3, the proposed model can account for variations in the concentrations of molecular water and hydroxyl groups in melts as functions of the total dissolved water content that are similar to those observed in glasses. The solubility of molecular water in melt is described by the following reaction: H2O (vapor) = H2Omolecular (melt).These reactions describing the homogeneous and heterogeneous equilibria of hydrous silicate melts can account for the following observations: the linearity between fH2O and the square of the mole fraction of dissolved water at low total water contents and deviations from linearity at high total water contents; the difference between the partial molar volume of water in melts at low total water contents and at high total water contents; the similarity between water contents of vapor-saturated melts of significantly different compositions at high pressures versus the dependence on melt composition of water solubility in silicate melts at low pressures; and the variations of viscosity, electrical conductivity, the diffusivity of “water,” the diffusivity of cesium, and phase relationships with the total dissolved water contents of melts.This model is thus consistent with available observations on hydrous melt systems and available data on the species concentrations of hydrous glasses and is easily tested, since measurements of the concentrations of molecular water and hydroxyl groups in silicate glasses quenched from melts equilibrated over a range of conditions and total dissolved water contents are readily obtainable.  相似文献

The microtextures of stishovite and coesite in shocked non-porous lithic clasts from suevite of the Ries impact structure were studied in transmitted light and under the scanning electron microscope. Both high-pressure silica phases were identified in situ by laser-Raman spectroscopy. They formed from silica melt as well as by solid-state transformation. In weakly shocked rocks (stage I), fine-grained stishovite (≤1.8 μm) occurs in thin pseudotachylite veins of quartz-rich rocks, where it obviously nucleated from high-pressure frictional melts. Generally no stishovite was found in planar deformation features (PDFs) within grains of rock-forming quartz. The single exception is a highly shocked quartz grain, trapped between a pseudotachylite vein and a large ilmenite grain, in which stishovite occurs within two sets of lamellae. It is assumed that in this case the small stishovite grains formed by the interplay of conductive heating and shock reverberation. In strongly shocked rocks (stages Ib–III, above ∼30 GPa), grains of former quartz typically contain abundant and variably sized stishovite (<6 μm) embedded within a dense amorphous silica phase in the interstices between PDFs. The formation of transparent diaplectic glass in adjacent domains results from the breakdown of stishovite and the transformation of the dense amorphous phase and PDFs to diaplectic glass in the solid state. Coesite formed during unloading occurs in two textural varieties. Granular micrometre-sized coesite occurs embedded in silica melt glass along former fractures and grain boundaries. These former high-pressure melt pockets are surrounded by diaplectic glass or by domains consisting of microcrystalline coesite and earlier formed stishovite. The latter is mostly replaced by amorphous silica.  相似文献

Infrared spectroscopy has been used to study the speciation of CO2 in glasses near the NaAlO2-SiO2 join quenched from melts held at high temperatures and pressures. Absorption bands resulting from the antisymmetric stretches of both molecular CO2 (2,352 cm–1) and CO 3 2– (1,610 cm–1 and 1,375 cm–1) are observed in these glasses. The latter are attributed to distorted Na-carbonate ionic-complexes. Molar absorptivities of 945 liters/mole-cm for the molecular CO2 band, 200 liters/mole-cm for the 1,610 cm–1 band, and 235 liters/mole-cm for the 1,375 cm–1 band have been determined. These molar absorptivities allow the quantitative determination of species concentrations in the glasses with a precision on the order of several percent of the amount present. The accuracy of the method is estimated to be ±15–20% at present.The ratio of molecular CO2 to CO 3 2– in sodium aluminosilicate glasses varies little for each silicate composition over the range of total dissolved CO2 content (0–2%), pressure (15–33 kbar) and temperature (1,400–1,560° C) that we have studied. This ratio is, however, a strong function of silicate composition, increasing both with decreasing Na2O content along the NaAlO2-SiO2 join and with decreasing Na2O content in peraluminous compositions off the join.Infrared spectroscopic measurements of species concentrations in glasses provide insights into the molecular level processes accompanying CO2 solution in melts and can be used to test and constrain thermodynamic models of CO2-bearing melts. CO2 speciation in silicate melts can be modelled by equilibria between molecular CO2, CO 3 2– , and oxygen species in the melts. Consideration of the thermodynamics of such equilibria can account for the observed linear relationship between molecular CO2 and carbonate concentrations in glasses, the proposed linear relationship between total dissolved CO2 content and the activity of CO2 in melts, and observed variations in CO2 solubility in melts.  相似文献

 The densification and structural changes in SiO2 glass compressed up to 43.4 GPa by shock experiments are investigated quantitatively by the X-ray diffraction technique. Direct structural data (average Si–O and Si–Si distances and Si–O–Si angles, coordination number of the Si atom) of these shock-densified SiO2 glasses have been obtained by analyzing the radial distribution function curves, RDF(r), calculated with X-ray diffraction data. The coordination number of all densified glasses is about 4 and shows almost no pressure variation. The SiO2 glass has shown density increase of 11% at a shock compression of 26.3 GPa. This density evolution could not be explained by the coordination change. The reduction of the average Si–O–Si angle (144° at 0 GPa to 136° at 26.3 GPa) obtained from RDF(r) data may account for this density increase. This Si–O–Si angle change may be caused by shrinkage of the network structure and the increase of small rings of SiO4 tetrahedra. For higher shock pressure, a decrease in the Si–O–Si angle to 140° was observed. This is consistent with the decrease in density at 32.0 and 43.2 GPa. This decrease in the Si–O–Si angle and density could be attributed to an annealing effect due to high after-shock residual temperature. This pressure dependence of average Si–O–Si angles in shock-densified SiO2 glass agrees with the results of our previous Raman spectroscopic study. On the other hand, the pressure variation for the first sharp diffraction peak (FSDP) was analyzed to estimate the evolution of intermediate range structures. It is suggested that the mean d value (d m ) obtained from the position of FSDP strongly depends on the shock and residual temperature, as well as shock pressure.
