M. Maslan et al., MOSSBAUER STUDY OF PHASE-TRANSITION CAUSED BY OXIDATION IN THE TEMPERATURE REGION FROM 20 TO 1000-DEGREES-C IN ALMANDINE GARNETS, Czechoslovak journal of Physics, 47(5), 1997, pp. 571-574
A Mossbauer investigation has been carried out on garnets from Medenec
and Ktis (Czech Republic). Changes of Fe2+ and Fe3+ crystallographic
sites were observed in these silicate garnets after temperature proces
sing under oxidising atmosphere. The temperature processes were realis
ed from 200 to 1000 degrees C by 100 degrees. The results of Mossbauer
experiments are compared with the results of the chemical analysis, X
-ray diffraction, infrared spectroscopy, and magnetic susceptibility m
easurements.
