Abstract

Synthetic Mn-tourmalines (tsilaisite) were obtained by hydrothermal synthesis under the condition of 2 Kbar, $375{\sim}700^{\circ}C$, and 50 day-run-time with complete substitution of Mg in dravite by Mn (Mn%=0, 25, 50, 75, and 100%). They are all 6 samples containing Mn-tourmaline with some amounts of albite, spessartine, rhodocrosite, phlogopite etc, showing different synthetic condition of temperature and Mn composition. Synthetic Mn-tourmalines are of site deficiency in X-site ($0.53{\sim}0.68$) more than that of natural ones (approx. $0.2{\sim}0.3$) and show Mn cations occupying Y-site less than expected with initial experiments, leading to failure in synthesis of end-member tsilaisite. Rietveld structural refinements reveal that $R_{wp}$ ($R_{p}/R_{exp}$) is in the range of 13.35 and 18.62%, $R_{B}$ and S (CofF) are $4.85{\sim}6.25%$ (S-18: 8.57%), $1.31{\sim}1.59$ (S-18: 1.81), respectively. Unit cell parameters (space group R3m, z=3) are ${\alpha}=15.8994\;{\AA}$ and $c=7.1846\;{\AA}$ in average (S-18: ${\alpha}=15.9491\;{\AA},\;c=7.1773\;{\AA}$). Average bond lengths of and are $2.67{\sim}2.69\;{\AA}$ (S-18: $2.65\;{\AA}$) and $2.00{\sim}2.02\;{\AA}$ (S-18: $1.96\;{\AA}$), respectively. Ditrigonality (${\delta}$) are in the range of 0.022 and 0.031 (S-18: 0.061), indicating degrading symmetry with increase of Mn content.

2 Kbar, $375{\sim}700^{\circ}C$ 조건하에서, 드라바이트의 Mg를 전 구간 치환하는 Mn 조성(Mn%=0, 25, 50, 75, 및 100%)을 가지고 열수법으로 약 50일간 성장시켜 Mn-전기석(tsilaisite)을 합성하였다. 그 결과, 조성별로 생성온도가 다른 6개의 합성 전기석이 얻어졌으며, 앨바이트, 스페샤틴, 능망간석, 금운모 등 다양한 불순물이 함께 생성되었다. 합성 Mn-전기석의 X-자리의 자리결손($0.53{\sim}0.68$)이 천연산(약 $0.2{\sim}0.3$)보다 높게 나타났으며, Y-자리의 Mn mole wt.%는 예상보다 낮은 값을 보이며, 단종 성분의 tsilaisite를 합성하지 못했다. 다양한 복합상으로 이루어진 분말 합성 전기석에 대해 리트벨트 구조분석을 실시하였다. $R_{wp}$값은($R_{p}/R_{exp}$)은 $13.35{\sim}18.62%$의 범위를 보여주며, $R_{B}$ 값은 $4.85{\sim}6.25%$ (S-18: 8.57%), S (GofF) 값은 $1.31{\sim}l.59$ (S-18: 1.81)으로 각각 나타났다. 단위포의 평균값은 공간군 R3m (z=3)으로 ${\alpha}=15.8994\;{\AA},\;c=7.1846\;{\AA}$이며, S-18은 ${\alpha}=15.9491\;{\AA},\;c=7.1773\;{\AA}$이다. 평균 값은 $2.67{\sim}2.69\;{\AA}$ (S-18: $2.65\;{\AA}$), 평균 값은 $2.00{\sim}2.02{\AA}$ (S-18: $1.96\;{\AA}$)으로 각각 계산되었으며, 대칭도(ditrigonality)를 나타내는 ${\delta}$값을 보면 $0.022{\sim}0.031$ (S-18: 0.061)의 범위를 가지는데 Mn 함량이 높아지면서 대칭도가 낮아진다.
