Rationale: Strontium aluminates can be used as refractory construction materials at temperatures up to 2000°С or as the materials for immobilization of long-lived radioactive waste. The SrО-Al O system is one of the more complicated oxide systems used for the creation of new radio-transparent materials. The exploitation of such materials at high temperatures demands the knowledge of the thermal stability of the compounds and solid solutions formed in the SrО-Al O system.

Methods: The synthesis of the samples in the SrO-Al O system was carried out by a ceramic method at 1250°C. The characterization of the samples was accomplished with the use of X-ray diffraction (XRD). The vaporization of the samples under study was performed from a twin tungsten effusion cell using the Knudsen effusion mass spectrometry method.

Results: The temperature dependences of partial pressures of vapor species over 4SrO·Al O , 3SrO·Al O , SrO·Al O , SrO·2Al O and SrO·6Al O in a wide range of temperatures were determined. The component activities, the Gibbs energies of mixing and the standard enthalpies of individual strontium aluminates were obtained.

Conclusions: The thermodynamic properties of the SrO-Al O system at high temperatures are characterized by negative deviation from ideality. The vaporization processes and thermodynamic properties of the SrO-Al O system were obtained for the first time.

Highly reactive nanomineral assembly in soil colloids: Implications for paddy soil carbon storage.

Mineral availability for carbon (C) binding is a key regulator of soil C storage, yet little is known about the highly reactive nanomineral assembly in the paddy soil colloids. Here, using high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), solid-state Al and Si nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), we investigated the coordination nature of short-range-ordered (SRO) minerals in water-dispersible colloids that were isolated from the paddy soil under different six-year fertilization regimes. Our results showed that organic fertilization not only promoted the transformation of crystalline minerals to SRO phases in the bulk soils but also increased the concentrations of Fe, Al and Si in the soil colloids compared to chemical fertilization alone, and thus enhanced the accumulation of organic C in both the bulk soils and the soil colloids.

The structure of strontium glasses with the composition (SiO)(AlO) (SrO) ( R = [SrO]/[AlO] = 1) and (SiO)(AlO) (SrO) ( R = 3) has been explored experimentally over both short- and intermediate-length scales using neutron diffraction, Al and Si nuclear magnetic resonance, and classical molecular dynamics simulations in model systems containing around 10 000 atoms. We aim at understanding the structural role of aluminum and strontium as a function of the chemical composition of these glasses. The short- and medium-range structure such as aluminum coordination, bond angle distribution, Q distribution, and oxygen speciation have been systematically studied.
