Pp. Fedorov, CONCERNING THE INCORPORATION OF DIVALENT-CATIONS INTO THE HIGH-TEMPERATURE MODIFICATION OF LI2SO4, Solid state ionics, 84(1-2), 1996, pp. 113-115
The analysis of the solubility of MSO(4) in the high-temperature cubic
modification of Li2SO4 reveals that divalent cations in the Li2SO4 st
ructure can occupy either tetrahedral or octahedral positions. The for
mer case is preferred for Be2+, and, to some extent, for Zn2+. For all
the other divalent cations the octahedral positions are prefered in t
he formation of the alpha-Li2SO4-based solid solutions.
