New low temperature synthetic route to an ammonium zinc arsenate zeolite analogue with an ABW-type structure

Inorg Chem. 2002 Jul 15;41(14):3588-9. doi: 10.1021/ic025603l.

Abstract

The synthesis and stability of zeolite analogues are of potential interest to the waste management community as waste metals may be used in the framework of these materials. A new synthetic route to an ABW-type ammonium zinc arsenate is proposed. The stability of this material is then examined in an aqueous environment by quantitative X-ray diffraction and leach testing.
