Abstract

This paper presents the results of a systematic investigation of the structure of 17O-enriched, hydrothermally synthesized 1.1-nm tobermorite, 1.4-nm tobermorite, jennite, calciochondrodite, xonotlite, and hillebrandite, using 29Si magic angle spinning (MAS) NMR, 1H-29Si cross-polarization magic angle spinning (CPMAS) NMR, and 17O MAS NMR. The 17O and most of the 1H-29Si CPMAS results are the first reported for these phases. Six types of oxygen sites were observed in tobermorite and jennite, including both SiOH CaOH linkages. The structure of 1.4-nm tobermorite is similar to that of 1.1-nm tobermorite with about 26% of the Ca2+′s in the interlayers. The results support the proposed jennite structure in which silicate chains and rows of OH groups alternately occur along the CaO layers [1]. Jennite contains long, single silicate chains similar to those in 1.4-nm tobermorite, with SiOH sites primarily occurring on bridging tetrahedra, and there seems to be no interlayer Ca2+′s. Although the Si sites in xonotlite and calciochondrodite cross-polarize well, neither contains SiOH linkages.
