By the quantitative FTIR analysis of bauxite during dissolution , the process of dissolution and precipitation of silica was found to occur in three stages. In the first stage, there was no precipitation of desilication product (DSP). All the silica dissolved from kaolinite went into the solution. In the second stage, the silica concentration in solution attained a maximum and then dropped very quickly. The precipitation of DSP was the main cause of the reduction of the silica concentration in solution. In the third stage, the concentration of DSP reached a constant level. The dissolution and precipitation process gradually attained an equilibrium. The mechanism of silica dissolution and DSP precipitation was discussed on the basis of the FTIR quantitative analysis of kaolinite and DSP in bauxite.展开更多

The crystallinity of the grown crystals was analyzed by powder X-ray diffraction studies. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and fourier transform (FT) Raman studies confirmed the presence of functional groups in the title compound. The optical band gap energy of the material was extracted from diffuse reflectance spectrum.展开更多
