New powder X-ray data for cancrinite (ideally Na8Si6Al6O24(CO3)2 . 2 H2O) are reported along with in-situ real-time thermal processes recorded using energy dispersive X-ray diffractometry (EDXD). A completely anhydrous phase is obtained after heating the sample up to 600°C and quickly cooling it to room temperature, as shown by means of both Rietveld analysis and IR spectroscopy. The anhydrous phase does not show any tendency to re-acquire molecular water. During the heating process, at around 450°C, a peak splitting is observed, possibly due to a reversible phase transition.

Abstract
New powder X-ray data for cancrinite (ideally Na8Si6Al6O24(CO3)2 . 2 H2O) are reported along with in-situ real-time thermal processes recorded using energy dispersive X-ray diffractometry (EDXD). A completely anhydrous phase is obtained after heating the sample up to 600°C and quickly cooling it to room temperature, as shown by means of both Rietveld analysis and IR spectroscopy. The anhydrous phase does not show any tendency to re-acquire molecular water. During the heating process, at around 450°C, a peak splitting is observed, possibly due to a reversible phase transition.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
