Structure and non-stoichiometry of calcium aluminates

Abstract
Lattice imaging of reaction-sintered ceramic compounds in the CaO‒Al2O3 system showed 00.1 syntactic intergrowths in the matrix CaO. 6Al2O3 phase. The structure of these intergrowths could be interpreted in terms of the concepts used to describe various magnetoplumbite phases (Braun 1957). The observed formation of syntactic phases reveals that calcium aluminates can accommodate calcium oxide/alumina non-stoichiometry in a relatively wide range by altering the stacking sequence of three sub-unit cell 00.1 slabs.
