Abstract

K2YZr(PO4)3and K2GdZr(PO4)3were found to have the langbeinite-type structure (K2Mg2(SO4)3). We determined the crystal structure of these compounds from powder diffraction data. They are cubic P213 (no. 198), with a = 10.3346(1)Å and a = 10.3457(3)Å respectively. The intensity values we observed and calculated are reported. Intensity measurements indicate a random distribution of Y3+(Gd3+) and Zr4+on both Mg2+sites of langbeinite.
