Abstract

X-ray powder diffraction data for a new phase of dicalcium silicate, x-Ca2SiO4, are reported. The sample was prepared by the dehydration of hydrothermally synthesized α-type dicalcium silicate hydrate, Ca2(SiO4H)OH, at a temperature of 800 °C. Crystallographic data were Ca2SiO4, monoclinic, P21/c (No. 14), a=8.2127(5), b=9.7930(4), c=9.7954(5) Å, β=94.848(5)°, V=785.00(7) Å3, Z=8, and Dx=2.91 g·cm−3.
